Matt Varga Born out of Mexican-American culture, Paisa Boys has become one of the defining faces of the LA streetwear scene with a rapid ascension since the pandemic. Now ticking another major achievement off the list, they previewed their next capsule collection, taking to the Nike Air Force 1 and Nike Cortez.
Both shoes show off essentially the same colorway, a muted combination of black and white with a pseudo-paisley laid over top. Combining classical vines with a tiled mosaic pattern, the embroidery adds both detail and texture, the graphics embossed to match additional visible stitching towards the back of both models.
With Paisa Boys’ designs heavily incorporating these sorts of geometric patterns, their continued emphasis on these two shoes shouldn’t come as a shock. On Nike’s side, the Air Force 1’s enduring relevance needs no explanation, but the inclusion of the Cortez makes a ton of sense given its cultural impact on the West Coast specifically.
