Nike Honors the Air Force 1 with the Anniversary Edition
Nike has been launching a plethora of Air Force 1 sneaker iterations as it meets an anniversary milestone this year -- the latest is the Anniversary Edition of the iconic sneaker. The silhouette has an asymmetric split throughout the design in a black and white hue.
The upcoming design wraps the shoe in a black leather material that has textures of tumbled looks and faux-crocodile. The sportswear label also applies gold embroidery at the heel of the shoe for contrast, which continues with the metallic gold details found at the lace dubreas that read "82" and the "AF-1." The Anniversary Edition is rounded out with branded details at the tongue tabs, a split rubber sole unit, and graffiti graphics at the insoles.
