Editor’s Notes: The Nike Air Force 1, world-renowned as one of the most recognizable and best-selling sneaker silhouettes of all time, has remained at the forefront of Nike’s arsenal since its debut in 1982.
Its timelessness and rich history have leveled the sneaker as a cross-cultural icon, connecting style, music, and sports. No matter which city around the world you visit, you’re sure to spot a pair of crisp white Air Force 1s. Many switch their used pairs out for fresh ones each summer, and it was rumored Dr. Dre donned a new pair every day, making it unlikely the silhouette is going away anytime soon.
Options for the AF1 Low and High are countless, spanning a spectrum of color and collaborations that include Supreme, KITH, and Drake. Next on the cards is a two-piece set of women’s exclusives that offer more than first meets the eye.
The first pair is constructed in the shoe’s original white leather base and accented with a blush-pink panel at the rear. Hints of blue appear on the lace dubrae and outsole, providing a sleek contrast. Where this colorway excels is its color-changing capabilities, which transform the stark-white base into panels of yellow, purple, blue, and red.
An even cleaner base is selected for the second colorway, which features a blank base of white tumbled leather and the same blue accents as its counterpart. Again, color-changing materials are utilized, making the Swoosh and heel tab pop out in blue and red, respectively.
