After a successful run with his own Air Jordan 1, Nigel Sylvester is moving on to the Nike Air Force 1. The Queens-native pays homage to the concrete jungle by adding his own spin to one of New York’s staple silhouettes. The pro BMX rider uses influence from the city’s ’80s and ’90s streetwear scene by using flashy colors and premium materials such as patent leather, soft velvet and satin throughout. Tracksuits, oversized fits and additional NYC pieces can be easily paired with some of Nigel’s designs which will be available from October 11 to October 13 via Nike’s 45 Grand Studio in New York City.

For those who can’t attend the space in person, the designs will also be available on Nike.com. Take a look at the shots provided and let us know which design you’re interested in. If you’re an AF1-lover, you can take a look at the sneaker’s recent Utility redesign.
