Name: Nike Air Force 1 Low “Black Nubuck”
Colorway: Black/Black
SKU: CJ9179-001
MSRP: $115 USD
Release Date: Available Now
Where to Buy: Nike

The perennial classic gets a sleek, textural upgrade. Nike is enhancing its iconic catalog with the release of the Air Force 1 Low “Black Nubuck,” a luxurious reinterpretation of the beloved “Triple Black” aesthetic. This new edition swaps the shoe’s traditional smooth leather for premium nubuck, instantly elevating the design with a soft, velvety finish perfect for the cooler months.

While the sneaker maintains its fundamental Air Force 1 DNA, the use of nubuck across the entire upper creates a subtle, appealing visual contrast. The uniform black color palette allows the material’s matte texture to stand out against the deep black of the outsole, interior lining, and Swoosh logo. This strategic material swap avoids the flat appearance of standard black-on-black versions, giving the 1982 silhouette a modern, high-quality feel.

The “Black Nubuck” is a welcomed addition to Nike’s seasonal updates, sitting alongside other fall-friendly iterations that prioritize elevated materials. It serves as a sophisticated, clean option for fans of the classic basketball-turned-streetwear staple. The shoe is currently available at select retailers, making it an essential pickup for those looking to refresh their everyday rotation with a luxe, low-profile look.
