Nike, the Beaverton, Oregon-based sportswear label, has supported its classic silhouettes over the years, and evidently so, as they lavishly celebrated the 40th anniversary of Air Force 1 sneaker model in 2022. Five months into 2023, the swoosh label continues to celebrate the model by launching multiple makeovers.
The latest makeover to surface of the sneaker model and its low-cute counter part is "Multi-color". Unlike its titular name, the sneaker is covered in subtle color scheme. The pair is likely to release in kids' sizes exclusively and has not revealed any details of adult sizes.
A release date for the Air Force 1 Low "Multi-Color" sneaker hasn't been announced by the swoosh label yet. However, according to media outlet Sneaker News and Sneaker Bar Detroit, the pair will be released via the e-commerce site of Nike, SNKRS app and select retailers in 2023.
More about upcoming Nike Air Force 1 Low "Multi-Color" sneakers
The iconic Air Force 1 sneaker model was designed by the swoosh label veteran Bruce Kilgore in 1982. The shoe was released as a part of basketball shoe lineup and immediately caught the attention of players, as it featured a comfortable sole unit and carried a minimalistic and sophisticated look.
The shoe model was constructed with clean lines, and in the last four decades it has continued to gain a status of becoming epitome of streetwear culture. The shoe model has continued to climb the ladder of popularity, thanks to GRs and collaborations.
The Nike site introduces the Air Force sneaker model and its pop-cultural relevance as follows:
"Debuting in 1982 as a basketball must-have, the Air Force 1 came into its own in the '90s. The clean look of the classic white-on-white AF1 was endorsed from the basketball courts to the block and beyond.”
The site adds about the model's relevance:
"Finding its rhythm in hip-hop culture, releasing limited collabs and colorways, Air Force 1 has become an iconic sneaker around the globe. And with over 2000 iterations of this staple, its impact on fashion, music and sneaker culture can’t be denied.”
The latest Air Force 1 Low "Multi-Color" sneakers are playful yet minimalistic. The upper of the shoe comes constructed out of leather material.
Most of the upper is clad in a pristine white hue, which is featured in perforated toe boxes to heels. The white hue is continued on the mesh tongues, laces and tumbled leather profile swooshes.
A pop of titular multi-colored hit is added on the exposed stitching around the profile swooshes and midsoles. Touch of colorful patterns are added on the inner lining and the collars to add a playful aesthetic.
Pops of ruby hue are added on the heel branding. A flair to the design is added with metallic silver overlays on the rear. The look is finished off with colorless white midsoles and semi-translucent milky rubber outsoles.
The pair is rumored to release in the coming months via Nike and select retailers for $90 in GS sizes.
