Nike Air Force 1 Low – Jersey Gold / Sport Red – Denim

William Freeman — Thu, 09 Feb 2012 16:42:35 +0000

The Nike Air Force 1 silhouette has yet to disappoint. Its one of those sneakers that looks great with a plain white silhouette or a custom bespoke upper and this latest look leans more towards the latter. This time we see the sneaker with a jersey gold upper leather and denim upper that features panels of each toggled against one another while a sport red swoosh sweeps across. The look is completed by a white outsole and a darker brown lining and heel tab and you can expect to see them on shelves of Nike retailers this Summer.

Additionally, the white on white pair of kicks featured an etched Footaction star logo on the lateral heel. With the All-Star game right around the corner, these arrived right at the perfect time.

Nike Air Force 1 Bespoke “Bone Rack” by Jason Curtin

Jacques Slade — Sat, 04 Feb 2012 05:10:20 +0000

Most people don’t realize that most sneakerheads have a story behind most of the kicks in their collection. Jason Curtin’s story goes back in time and starts with his grandfather, Bone Rack. Building on Bone Rack’s service in the military, Jason incorporates medals, silver stars, and purple hearts. Though Bone Racked served in the Marines, Jason decided to go with navy blue for the remainder of the upper over a denim and suede mix. God bless Bone Rack and shout to 21 Mercer for making it happen. Source: UGSoles

As we all know, 2012 is the Year of the Dragon, and to celebrate, Nike has crafted this pair of Nike Air Force 1 Supreme. We saw the shoe release over in Asian earlier this month, and today we’re seeing new images of the shoe, which has released over at European accounts including Gothenburg based Shelta and Aberdeen based Hanon.

Inspired by the dragon robe, this pair of Nike Air Force 1 features subtle design cues such as the cloud-and-dragon pattern on the tongue, and the dragon design on the black silk texture of the sides and upper. Each of these is used to evoke a memories of royalty in China. Look for these at Nike accounts over in Europe now.

Nike Air Force 1 Low Premium ’30th Anniversary’ – Black

William Freeman — Mon, 23 Jan 2012 18:44:45 +0000

The Nike Air Force 1 will be celebrating the big 3-0 this year and we are looking for Nike to pull out all the stops to help it celebrate. As one of their oldest and most beloved models its hard to imagine that they wouldn’t and as you can guess the tribute silhouettes have started to trickle out.

The first pair we get a glance at is a tonal black affair that places an emphasis on materials by way of a textured leather covering the entire upper. With what appears to be a black translucent outsole finishing the sneakers off this is most certainly a pair we can’t wait to see in person. These will hopefully be part of a 30th anniversary set that will commemorate the shoe’s rich history.

MEDICOM x Nike Air Force 1 Low BE@RBRICK More Images

William Freeman — Mon, 23 Jan 2012 16:59:43 +0000

The collaborative effort by Nike and Medicom recently hit shelves and subsequently flew off of them just as fast. If you are a Nike Air Force 1 enthusiast we definitely hope you guys got a crack at these well crafted gems and we have a few more images of the sneakers to help display why.

Fur uppers and leather liners make this two colorway drop a very special affair and even more special is that they were pretty limited and exclusive to Nike’s 21 Mercer St store. Sure you can probably find a pair on eBay by now but hopefully they don’t have a crazy mark up on the price tag.

Nike Air Force 1 Low – University Blue / Obsidian – White

William Freeman — Fri, 20 Jan 2012 19:46:27 +0000

Nike sure doesn’t leave us in want of another Air Force 1 colorway. The shoe finds its way to retail in a new colorway almost daily it seems and following suit of the Nike Air Force 1 ‘Red Bean’ comes what could presumably be the Blue Bean for the sake of nicknaming it.

The shoe features a tumbled leather university blue upper with an obsidian suede heel tacked on for tonality. They are trimmed in white along the midsole and swoosh as a finishing touch. These are a great look in contrast to the Nike Air Force 1 Red Bean and we are excited to see if more colorways of the shoe release with the same build.
