Michael Le Thinking back on Nike’s past releases, the term “Utility” would often accompany oversized compartments, various straps, and waterproof materials. But with their latest version of the Air Force 1, the brand is taking a more minimal approach to design, replacing the classic’s usual construction with rugged materials and an entirely new sole unit.
Following the debut of its “Beef and Broccoli” colorway, the Air Force 1 Utility — which joins a long list of 40th Anniversary offerings — is delivering a classic white-on-blue arrangement. The Swoosh and branding adjacent are clad in the cool tone, while the leather overlays and ballistic mesh base indulge in a white and off-white shade, respectively. The remolded sole below, then, rounds out the design with a yellow look akin to vintage sneakers.
For a closer look at this upcoming Air Force 1 Utility, check out the official images below. These should be on their way to Nike.com and select retailers as we speak, so sit tight.
