Michael Le Now more than ever, the importance of sustainability can’t be undercut. Nike, even prior to their “Move to Zero” initiative, has been well-aware of this, bringing to light FlyLeather, Grind, and much, much more. And following their recent string of “Next Nature” offerings, the brand is to roll out more iterations of the Air Force 1 Crater, dressing it up here in a black-dominant colorway.
Through the leather base and nubuck overlays, black is applied in heavy saturation — especially atop the latter fixtures. The lace unit and lining follow suit, while the branding, such as the side Swoosh and the circular design logo stamped onto the heel tab, opt for a much more vibrant display of random colors. Many of these reds, greens, and blues are echoed along the midsole, which is very evidently made up of recycled scraps.
Enjoy a close-up look at this AF1 Crater below and sit tight for their upcoming Nike.com release.
In other news, the 350 v2 Blue Tint is likely restocking closer to the end of the year.
