Nike Unveils Another Puerto Rico-Inspired Sneaker Silhouette
Nike has revealed a ‘Puerto Rico’ colorway of its Air Force 1 Low sneaker. Utilizing colors from Puerto Rico’s flag, the primarily white sneaker uses red for the Nike branding on the tongue, while dark and light blue tones cover the soles and Swooshes. The uppers are perforated, while the overlays are made of smooth leather. The right heel and insoles pay tribute to “Nueva York” and “Viejo San Juan.”
The ‘Puerto Rico’ Air Force 1 Low comes with clean white laces, arriving just after Nike’s previous ‘Air Max 97s,’ ‘Air Trainer 1s,’ and ‘Nike Air Force 1 Low CMFTs,’ inspired by the island. References to Puerto Rico can be seen on the lace dubraes, with a domino design on the right shoe and ‘Puerto Rico’ in script on the left.
The ‘Puerto Rico’ colorway will be available in the coming months. Consumers can visit Nike’s website for updates on the sneaker’s release.
