Get Up Close With the KITH x Nike Air Force 1 "University Red"

First seen on Ronnie Fieg's favourite sneaker magazine, SHOES MASTER, the KITH x Nike Air Force 1 "University Red" has been on our minds since they were teased back in March. While release info has been kept under wraps since, we're now getting up close and personal with the coveted collaboration, and the more we see it, the more we're falling in love with it.

Taking on the OG "Triple White" palette that's been around since the '80s, the first thing that you'll probably notice about this AF1 is the "University Red" satin lining inside the shoe. Bold and beautiful, it's complemented by a subtle yet striking Nike Swoosh at the lateral toe.

Repeated KITH box logos are debossed onto the side panels of the Air Force 1, while an additional one hits the tongue with a red circle highlighting the letters "IT", referencing the Japanese flag. To round it all off, metallic gold accents make their way to the lace tips and deubré, giving the shoe an opulent aesthetic that's sure to turn heads for years to come.

You've probably guessed it already but the KITH x Nike Air Force 1 "University Red" will be a Japan exclusive. Expected to launch sometime this spring, let us know if you'd grab a pair! While you're here, you should probably read our piece on who is Ronnie Fieg!
