In addition to the pastel Air Force 1 Lows that were recently released, Nike launched a fresh colorway for its Air Force 1 High SLs to get consumers pumped up for Easter.
Although the High SLs are a part of the brand's holiday capsule collection, their light purple colorway makes them perfect to wear throughout all of spring and summer. Similarly to the Air Force 1 Lows, the High SLs have a slightly bulkier build than most, which allows them to function as a great statement piece that's also doesn't detract from the rest of one's outfit.
What's most unique about the silhouette is its inclusion of tassels on the heels, and the matching accents on the Velcro straps. Due to these additions, the sneakers have a design that's a little reminiscent of bird feathers.
