Bruce Kilgore gave Nike a “golden goose” in 1982 with the design of the Air Force 1. As the silhouette celebrates its 40th anniversary, it continues to feel fresh.
Recently, the made-for-basketball design emerged in a pink tumbled leather makeover that’s perfect for summer. A bubble gum-reminiscent shades makes up the majority of the top-half, while a much more vibrant counterpart lands at the upper heel and tongue labels. Profile swooshes deviate in both a felt-like material and black-colored arrangement, with the latter also appearing at the tongue’s trim and inner-lining. Lastly, sole units opt for a predominantly white ensemble that allows for the “AIR” wrapped around the heel to deliver one last touch of pink flair to the Air Force 1 Low.
Enjoy official images of the pair ahead, and anticipate a Nike.com launch soon.
Elsewhere under the “Swoosh” banner, the Nike Dunk Low is set to release in handfuls of styles before 2022 ends.
