With the Swoosh logo’s 50th anniversary on the way, Nike’s “First Use” pack celebrates the legendary symbol by featuring gold lace dubraes and text that reads the date of the icon’s first appearance. More pride in the check is showcased by the upcoming “Multi-Swoosh” pack, which multiplies and colors the Swooshes found on several fan-favorite classics. Among such models are the Air Max Plus, Air Max Plus 3, and a newly-revealed Air Force 1.
The AF1 sports a familiar white smooth leather upper with a Sail midsole for a slightly aged look. As seen on the aforementioned Air Maxes, the lateral side’s classic Swoosh overlay has been ditched for a green outline of the logo. This side also features differently-sized blue and red Swooshes, as well as a small white embroidered check at the forefoot. The medial side opts for a much emptier look, void of both the standard profile Swoosh overlay and the designs featured on the opposite side. Instead, a blue embroidered reversed check is applied near the heel. Blue further animates the Nike Air logos on the tongue label and heel tab to complete this new offering.
Check out official images of the Air Force 1 below, which will arrive at Nike.com and the listed retailers in the coming months.
