Matt Varga A shoe like the Nike Air Force 1 Low is timeless for a reason, reached for during countless seasonal switch-ups, closet refreshes, and wardrobe restocks throughout its decades on the market. So while simplistic pairs may be less visually interesting to us than more expressive or transformative fare, it’s big business for the Swoosh, ensuring that the most successive looks for Bruce Kilgore’s design are at the ready, at all times.
With summer now dawning in the Northern Hemisphere, it’s only right that the model takes to that prompt in sprightly tones, wearing “Guava Ice” peach coloring on the usual two-tone split we seen on the AF1. The only divergence from similar tone-on-white looks is the use of a fully colorless midsole. Lastly, it’s worth noting anytime it appears: this is a Next Nature release, demonstrating the Swoosh’s intent to wean the general public onto this eco-conscious series through “staple” product, elsewhere exemplified by similar releases of the Nike Dunk Low.
As an earnest GR, the Nike Air Force 1 Low “Guava Ice” will likely hit Nike.com and partnering retailers without being telegraphed ahead of time. Expect a $115 retail price for this women’s exclusive.
