Michael Le 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place prizes were often handed out to Nike silhouettes — especially the Air Force 1. And with Bruce Kilgore’s beloved design turning 40-years-old, the brand is awarding the shoe a luxurious bronze medal.
The Air Force 1’s universal charm is not lost with the addition of the metal. Most of the colorway is built of neutral parts, with white shades dressing the Swoosh, forefoot, heel, and tongue. Black, then, highlights the Nike branding adjacent — atop the tongue and rear, specifically — while bronzed panels mark the heel tab and mid-panel.
For a closer look at this newly-revealed Air Force 1, check out the official images below. Sizes will likely appear on Nike.com and at select retailers within the coming months.
