NIGO and Nike kicked off their partnership in 2024 by bringing back the Air Force 3 Low. Since then, the two have continued to operate on the sneaker, putting together everything from croc leather-inspired looks to a Levi’s collaboration. Looking ahead to 2026, the duo has another campaign featuring the sneaker to come, this time bringing Pendleton into the fold.

Two Pendleton x NIGO x Nike Air Force 3 Low colorways have just surfaced under a “College” pack theme. These mixed material colorways, which blend suede, leather, and textile detailing throughout the upper, feature “Forest Green” and “Midnight Navy” color schemes. Per usual, NIGO Force branding is spotted at the right shoe’s heel. What sets this set apart from previous launches, aside from the difference in composition, is the inclusion of Pendleton fabric. The wool specialists are noted at the sockliner of each shoe, however, the brand’s involvement beyond this remains vague. Each pair embraces the collegiate theme by coming with a NIGO-branded pennant and a varsity jacket-inspired “O” letter.

At the time of writing, neither Pendleton, NIGO, nor Nike have announced this new “College” pack of Air Force 3 Lows. Stay tuned for updates, including an official look at both colorways, as we currently expect the campaign to arrive at the beginning of 2026, with pairs releasing via Nike SNKRS and select retailers at an estimated starting price of $150 USD.
