Although fall may be the season of pumpkin spice lattes, falling leaves, and cozy sweaters for the general public, it means one single thing to many a sneakerhead: that it’s time to break out the wheat kicks. Fall is when sneaker brands dress their best lifestyle models in tonal wheat colorways, letting loyalists get the aesthetic of a classic construction boot while still rocking their favorite kicks. Due to its thick midsole and chunky construction, Nike’s Air Force 1 has always been a fall staple — and the Beaverton brand has made sure to drop a special wheat Air Force 1 Low each and every autumn to satiate the seasonal needs of Force lovers around the world. Featuring a tonal nubuck upper and boot-style oval laces, the only pops of color on these fall Forces arrive via dark olive logo hits on the tongue and heel. The shoe’s rugged look is then completed by a classic gum midsole and outsole. These fundamental fall Forces are available at several Swoosh Brand retailers now — even though Nike has the release date listed as September 26th — so check out our full Where To Buy list below to see where you can get your hands on a pair.
