After introducing the women’s Air Force 1 Upstep in February, Nike is bringing the silhouette back. The latest pair of colorways offers plenty of sequins and upgrades, ranging from the new medial side branding to embroidery on the heel. Swapping the Swoosh for sparkly “NIKE” branding, the shoe also offers premium leather and the usual Air Force 1 branding on the toe. Tonal “Habanero Red” stitching encircles half of the midsole, matching the “FORCE IS FEMALE” embroidery on the heel.

Stay tuned for the shoe to release on April 2 on Nike’s website.

More women’s sneaker heat is on the way from Nike, with “The 1 Reimagined” set to return in a bevy of pastel hues.
