Nike Sf Af1 Black Gum Release 1

Ben Kirschner’s Nike SF-AF1 was more than just a pleasant surprise when the lifestyle takedown of Bruce Kilgore’s legendary basketball model released back in Fall 2016 – it was the hottest shoe of the season and it wasn’t too hard to see why. The militarized version of the Nike Air Force 1 saw a high-top extension with a unique dual-strap construction arrive in a number of colorways and there are even more tonal looks on the way slated to release next Thursday, January 19th. Today we get a look at a revamped Nike SF-AF1 Black Gum colorway featuring a little more black than the past variation thanks to a matching midsole unit.

This Nike SF-AF1 Black Gum also features a premium tumbled leather construction to differentiate itself from the original Black/Gum pair while a ballistic nylon adds weather resistance to the fold. The traditional outsole unit means that you can expect to pick up your pair in your normal AF1 size even despite the new military-inspired construction throughout. Are you excited about the return of the Nike Special Field Air Force 1?

Be sure to check out more photos of the latest Nike SF-AF1 Black Gum pair below and know that you can grab your size from select spots like Rock City Kicks starting next Thursday, January 19th for $165 USD. Do note that it doesn’t look like the latest batch of colorways will be accompanied by the extra paracord strap, but we’ll keep you updated on this fact once we have confirmation.
