Nike Introduces a New Air Force 1 Low in Vanta Black
Nike introduces a new iteration of the Air Force 1 Low sneaker model arriving in a Vanta Black colorway palette, marking the darkest AF1 sneaker ever. It made its first appearance during a special SNKRS preview. It is not confirmed that the Vanta Black palette is truly made from Vantablack but it does boast a stealthy look.
It is complete with a polished finish which results in a triple black hue. All of the construction elements remain the same throughout the silhouette. Branding is seen in a subtle manner in the form of the Swoosh motif on the side, the AIR touch on the midsole unit, and the Nike Air tag at the tongue to round it out.
