Earlier this month, Melbourne sneaker atelier, BespokeIND, crafted a bespoke pair of Nike Air Force 1 Lows for A$AP Ferg. They have returned to gift French Montana and his little brother the Nike Air Force 1 “French Vanilla”. The customs are influenced and commemorate the collaboration between French and CÎROC‘s vodka of the same name that sold out worldwide.

The build uses the finest materials available that pay homage to French’s Moroccan roots such as: Moroccan Djellaba fabric, vintage Kimono, Obi silk, kangaroo suede, Japanese yearling vegetan, baby calf, lambskin, and deerskin. Using a nude color palette, the shoe intertwines rich patterned fabric with leathers accented by silk domes on the heel and tongue, resembling the CÎROC ‘flavor’ emblem, and the gold “FRENCH” dubraes.

Look at the Nike Air Force 1 “French Vanilla” above and let us know what you think of them below.
