Andrew Rizzo The Nike Air Force 1 “Ivory Snake” returns on May 16th for $150 via Nike SNKRS and select retailers. Having first released in 1996 as an Asia-exclusive, the shoe harkens back to the days when sneakerheads were obsessed with tracking down pairs available only overseas, growing a cult following through word-of-mouth discourse. Nike brought it back for the first time in 2019, and now we’re graced with another re-stock complete with all the same hallmarks, style code and all.

The “Ivory Snake” AF1 works off the “Triple White” colorway, an icon in its own right that’s been an “Uptown” staple for decades. Brown snakeskin adorns the Swoosh and heel, complemented by retro “Nike Air” branding on the heel and a matching black tongue. All in all, the shoes speak to the idea that “less is more” while capturing an important era in the AF1’s history, when it was released in countless new groundbreaking colorways and materials.
