The Nike Air Force 1 Low "Since 1982" Honors the Model's Origins
Celebrating the 41-year-old icon crafted by Bruce Kilgore.






Throughout its lifetime, Nike has released countless silhouettes that have become instant classics — one of the most notable being the Air Force 1. From highs to lows, the model released in 1982 and has graced the feet of athletes and casual wearers far and wide, celebrating its 41st anniversary in 2023.
Now, Nike is gearing up to release a special edition Air Force 1 Low that pays tribute to its lively origin story. Titled “Since 1982,” the casual silhouette receives “Summit White” leather uppers and all-over debossed decorations that celebrate its founding year. Tonal badges adorn the mesh tongues, while similar Nike Swoosh branding sinks into the heel tabs with a delicate finish.
Elsewhere, “Metallic Silver” logos embrace the medial panels, while creamy AF1-branded dubraes sit on the laces. Finally, standard insoles complete the offering with graphic touches atop traditional white sole units.
Take a closer look at the Nike Air Force 1 Low “Since 1982” in the gallery above. The sneaker is expected to drop later this year via Nike and select retailers for $130 USD.
