Do you lay the recent rise in patent leather Air Force 1s at Lil Yachty’s feet, for introducing a new generation to the 2000s playbook? Or, do you instead go back to the source, and look to a shoe like the NIGO Air Force 1 Low “Nowhere,” a modern representation of what the BAPE head made inescapable in the aughts?
Regardless of how your motive varies, what’s beyond scrutiny is the fact that the shining materiality is back as a real focus for the Uptown, as a three-pronged set marked instant sellouts and proved that those collaborators had effectively made the “hype” a mainline factor. While those pairs leaned summer-forward in their color choices, a tuxedo-like all-black forged a more formalized lane for the glossy concept.
Now, a “Triple White” pair arrives as a counterbalance, both playing into the most lasting look for the AF1 while keeping the buttoned-up atmosphere intact. Beyond the material choices and the comprehensive snowy look, these stick to exactly what we’ve come to expect from the Uptown.
The Nike Air Force 1 Low Patent Leather “White” is available now via Foot Locker, with an official Nike release expected soon. Either way, be ready for a $125 retail price through either channel. Hit the “Where To Buy” links below to check for your size.
