Oh, I remember the days of, “Stompin’ in my Air Force 1s.”
Now, you can’t even find Air Force 2s. (I’m not even sure they exist). It just suddenly came to the point that Air Force 1s are square.
Which might be exactly what Filippo Perin is trying to get across to all of us. His AIR CUBE FORCE 1 collection puts an interesting spin on the once famous Nikes. The shoes rock straightened edges, sick colour schemes (including the original all white), and look as though you’d find them in the Transformer section of a shoe store.
If robots never succeed in taking over the human race, at least they’ll have nice shoes.
