Intentional or not, this upcoming Nike Air Force 1 has Jordan Brand’s fingerprints all over it. While anchored by a “Wolf Grey” titular hue, two key design choices produce a not-so-subtle allusion to the iconic “Cool Grey” Jordan 11.

For one, the shoe features “Wolf Grey” patent leather on the toe, eyelets, and heel, borrowing a headlining texture from Mike’s eleventh signature model. Additionally, and more importantly perhaps, Nike includes white rope laces akin to those utilized on the “Cool Grey” 11s. The toe box, quarter, and outsole appear in “Vast Grey,” complemented by white treatments on the Swoosh and midsole.

For what it’s worth, the “Cool Grey” Jordan 11 most recently returned in 2021 and is not among Jordan releases on our 2025 calendar. If anything, these AF1s are a solid consolidation prize for those who missed out on the recent “Cool Grey” Jordan 9 retro.

The “Wolf Grey” Air Force 1 retails for $125 and is expected to release Summer 2025 in men’s sizing. See official images below if you’re moved to cop a pair.
