Sneaker News Update: Official images of the LAAMS x Nike Air Force 1 Low have surfaced, further clarifying the double-ply Swoosh, woodgrain uppers, and off-white detailing throughout the shoe. In addition, these new shots reveal a neon interruption in the outsole traction and vibrant insoles depicting a litany of brand-specific imagery, including a nod to their “Rotten Island Records” extension, located on the second floor of their NYC flagship. The brand confirms that the collaboration will release on December 6th via LAAMS before a SNKRS distribution on December 13th.
LAAMS has been serving the creative community of NYC and beyond through its three-story concept store and space since 2020. Situated in the Lower East Side, the brand founded by Scott Selvin has focused on one thing: being welcoming. Now, their efforts are being brought to the larger platform through a partnership with Nike, and their debut project–the Air Force 1 has officially been revealed at ComplexCon.
Photos shared by Bernie Gross of Extra Butter reveals the classic Air Force 1 in a classic two-toned colorway that channels the spirit of New York City. The upper green is hardly uniform; instead, it has woodgrain pattern to the haphazardly painted plywood typically found covering construction sites. These makeshift surfaces are where bills are commonly posted are are commonly seen as part of the landscape of downtown New York City.
There are some additional details to cover, like the neon green detail on the heel point on the sole, and the light blue “shadow” that sits above the Swoosh logo.
Brendan Dunne confirms that only 2,000 pairs will be released on December 6th, 2025.
