Those looking for a winterized sneaker that can seamlessly transition through the different seasons of the year may find what they're looking for in the new 'AF1 Boot' from Nike.
A sleek all-black colorway marks the entire silhouette, including the soles, laces, and interior—which also makes it more resistant to typical scuffs and scratches. With a warm inner lining and well-gripped outsoles, the high-tops will fare well on most terrain throughout the winter.
The sneakers feature Nike's classic Swoosh logo on the sides of the uppers, and in smaller variations that are included on the backs of the heels. Air Force branding is featured on the sides of the midsoles, while Nike's name logo can be seen on the tongues.
