Bruce Kilgore crafted the Nike Air Force 1. The now-iconic Air Force 1 first appeared on retail shelves in 1982. Nike Air Force 1 has been designated after the Air Force One plane that transports the President of the United States.

Nike Air technology was originally used in the Air Force 1 hoop sneaker. It invented a soft, bouncy, and padded fit for basketball. Players in the NBA donned the Nike Air Force 1 in the early 1980s, which helped to enhance its reputation. On the court, basketball players such as Moses Malone, Bobby Jones, and Jamaal Wilkes donned the shoes.

Over the years, the silhouette has emerged as a wardrobe staple with numerous collaborative releases and general launches. The design of the Air Force 1 shoe has undergone changes over time, as stated on the shoe company's website:

“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.”

It continues:

"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.”

This version, ostensibly inspired by the original 1982 Air Force 1 hue, features an all-white top with a grey Swoosh as well as heel overlays, rubber outsoles, and midsole branding emblems. It's a much lighter hue than Bruce Kilgore's original, with subtle changes to the top (nubuck) and tongue/heel logo marks.

In modern, low-line typography and enamel small Swooshes, the latter joins similar models of the Air Max 1 and Nike Dunk Low to demonstrate its inclusion in a bigger Nike Sportswear range.
