Case in point: the Nike Air Force 1 Low Crater.
Although Bruce Kilgore’s decades-old design has previously emerged with the same cushioning debuted on the Nike Space Hippie line, its latest take features the aforementioned campaign’s “swoosh wheel” logo at the lateral heel. A mix of (at least partly) upcycled materials make up the entirety of the upper, with the rear panels boasting an eye-catching blue tone that stands in stark contrast to the remainder of the sneaker. The semi-translucent aesthetic of the low-top Air Force 1 further injects a refreshing look into the near 40-year-old model, while making it a compelling option for the summer season.
Enjoy official images of the eco-friendly Air Force 1 Low ahead, and expect a Nike.com launch soon.
