Nike Wraps Air Force 1 in Premium Textures & Patterns
Snakeskin meets stain glass meets ornate detailing.
Nike has unveiled a new take on the iconic Air Force 1 silhouette, wrapping the low-top sneaker in an array of premium patterns, prints and textures. The sneaker is designed with three distinct sections along the upper. The rear portion is wrapped in red snakeskin leather, while the middle comes in an ornate stain glass-style pattern. Lastly, the area around the toe box comes in an orange and red pattern of Swooshes and flowers.
Other features of the ornate sneaker include a felt Swoosh secured with exposed black stitching, and understated black panelling on the lacing system, tongue and heel. Lastly, the Air Force 1 features a Nike-branded tongue tab in the same stain glass-style pattern that adorns the midfoot.
Take a look at the sneaker — which is wrapped in a “Gym Red/Orange/Black/Canyon Gold” colorway in the gallery above. While no release date has been announced, expect the latest Air Force 1 to arrive at Nike’s web store some time in April.
