Andrew Rizzo Updated June 27th, 2025: Another image of Lil Yachty’s green croc skin Air Force 1 has surfaced from @likkleguttabumbaclot. We got our first look at this sneaker back in December of last year, but no info regarding a release has been floated at the time of this update.
Original article published December 16th, 2024:
The release of Lil Yachty’s first “Concrete Boys” Air Force 1 was a classic tale of good and bad. After playing a role in several past Nike releases, the self-proclaimed “biggest sneakerhead in hip-hop” finally authored the first chapter of what could potentially become a long and fruitful collaborative relationship. The bad; criticism of the shoe came to a helm at ComplexCon when Yachty called out Bimma Williams, ultimately leaving fans with a sour taste in the wake of the launch. The Atlanta artist since apologized for his “corny” remarks and now appears ready to move forward, recently unveiling a crocodile skin Air Force 1 on his Instagram story.
Fully avoiding “basic” allegations this time around, this new Lil Yachty Air Force 1 features a full croc skin upper for an elevated, lux aesthetic. The unique texture appears in dark green and black, complemented by what appears to be black leather lining and a black midsole to match. The backtab is comprised of glossy patent leather, while the logo of Yachty’s “Concrete Boys” collective is stitched onto the lateral side of the heel.
Neither Nike nor Yachty have confirmed a release at the time of this writing. Know that this page as well as our Sneaker Release Dates hub will update if/when new info emerges.
