The Nike Air Force 1 is fast-approaching its 40th anniversary. Ahead of the milestone celebration, Bruce Kilgore’s iconic design has appeared in a handful of modified arrangements, with the latest arriving with cut-out swooshes.
While Carolyn Davidson’s creation has previously been tweaked on Nike Sportswear propositions, its latest “omission” falls in line with various comfort-oriented offerings from the brand to gain popularity over the last two years. Profile logos are still visible in shape, as well as via the non-standard, miniature swoosh present at the lateral quarter panel. A reinforced toe works in-tandem with logo-less, pull tab-donning upper heel panels to further remove the newly-surfaced Nike Air Force 1 Low trifecta from past styles. Underfoot, white, black and grey shoes options mostly feature sole units that promote a uniform aesthetic.
Enjoy official looks at all three pairs here below, and anticipate a quiet Nike.com launch soon, including Grade School sizes.
Elsewhere under the NIKE, Inc. umbrella, the Air Jordan 2 has recently gotten some attention thanks to Virgil Abloh.
