Japanese Reggae/Hip-Hop artist MINMI collaborated with Nike Japan on both an Air Force 1 and a Court Force High. Freshness says:
[The Air Force 1] features Wave inspired imprints on the leather uppers. 2 kanji (Chinese characters) stitched on both sides of the heel. They represent Crane and Turtle. Both are symbols of longevity, which MINMI feels best fit for her concept of Japanese culture.
[The Court Force High] pays homage to the source of Reggae, the island nation of Jamaica. It incorporates the essences of Jamaica: Jamaica’s national flower Lignum Vitae and the national bird Dr. Bird (swallow-tail humming bird). A monogram imprint of the Moon, which symbolizes femininity in Japanese culture, can be seen on the leather upper.

Yet another Nike Court Force Lo collaboration but this time its with UK brand Gimme 5. This time thime the enfassie is firmly placed on summery vibrant colours with two pairs designed, lime green and white. Release date is to be confirmed.
Last month Stussy released their sway on the Nike Court force Low.
Next up are Gimme 5. The collective have embraced the summer and decided to go for white and lime green. There’s colour blocking reference to the Stussy Court Force Lo going on here and the patent toe piece and small use of 3m material on the side panel is something we’ve seen before. However, we find the lime green more striking.
These two versions are rumoured for release in the near future. Way to go Limey!
