In celebration of League of Legends: Wild Rift‘s launch, Riot Games has teamed with SBTG for custom Nike Air Force 1s. Dubbed the “Wild Rift,” the hand-customized Nike Sportswear shoes feature bold Swooshes and gold heel branding, the latter of which is personalized for Riot Games’ Asia-based partners.

Sitting atop the classic, monochromatic base provided by the white Air Force 1 Low is SBTG’s signature embroidered tiger camo Swoosh — here done up in blue, gold and white for an acknowledgement of Wild Rift‘s color scheme. Standard Nike tongue tags and lace deubres are replaced by special Wild Rift graphic. Heels boast gold foil prints, all specific to the individual each pair was created for. Stark white midsoles and outsoles round off the look.

“This collaboration celebrates the discipline of practice which is integral in both the worlds of sneaker customization and gaming, as the beautifully embroidered energetic pattern on the [Swoosh] features a tiger camouflage which the SBTG team has been painting for more than a decade, now in the game’s official colors,” said SBTG founder Mr Sabotage.

The Riot Games x SBTG x Nike Air Force 1 “Wild Rift” custom is a promo item and will not see a retail release.
