Over the course of the Air Force 1‘s 40th Anniversary, Nike has dressed up the classic silhouette in a wide range of different materials. And while its latest offering is nothing new in this regard — nor in colorway — it certainly deserves a seat at the table for its quality alone.
Minimal in many ways, the pair starts with a simple, two-toned sole unit: a light grey touches up the outsole, while the midsole proffers white throughout, matching the above laces, tongue, and lining. The tumbled leather Swoosh, in slight contrast, opts for a shade more cream-dominant, as does the heel tab and tongue label, both of which sport a light brown. Finally, the rest of the construction indulges in a premium suede, whose color blends well with the rest of the palette.
