The Nike Air Force 1 "Keep Em Fresh" is the Swoosh team's latest take on the timeless Air Force 1 silhouette that’s been a mainstay in the rotations of many since 1982. It was designed by legendary Nike employee Bruce Kilgore and since then, it’s held a legendary status in the footwear world and played host to some of the most iconic collaborations of all time with the likes of renowned American rapper Travis Scott and popular fashion designer Virgil Abloh.
If you've been keeping up with the newest trends, the recent craze is all about aged sneakers. While many sneakerheads have started to give their shoes a distressed makeover using sandpaper, some have even gone as far as customising their box-fresh pairs with newly-developed sneaker stainer markers to instantly achieve a vintage-ready aesthetic without having to wait several years before unboxing their kicks or finding a second-hand seller on eBay. Though this may certainly not be everyone's cup of tea, something about it definitely mesmerises others.
As for the latest AF1 variant, the Beaverton-based sportswear giant has hit the ground running to deliver this all-new colorway. A closer look at the official images we have here at The Sole Supplier show this forthcoming AF-1 loosely wrapped and lightly stitched along the edges with box tissue paper inviting you to tear it off and reveal the design underneath.
Working on a low-top profile, all the features that made the Air Force 1s so famous are still present as ever on this iteration, prominently speaking of the perforated toe box for added durability and Swoosh-branded side panels, tongue, and heel, these are as classic as it gets. As for the award-winning formula, yellowing appears throughout the white tumbled leather upper and most especially the full-length Nike Air cushioned midsole underfoot being entirely stained, overall to give that aged effect.
