Aged aesthetics have become a welcome sight for the Nike Air Force 1, harkening to decades of heritage presiding within Bruce Kilgore’s iconic silhouette. Recently, the low-top model infused its old-school embellishments with hits of bright red.

Similar to the construction of its recent “Color Of The Month” series, a premium tumbled leather encases the entirety of the crisp white base layer, save its tongue construction which dawns a heavily perforated makeup. Illuminated by bright “University Red” accents, the latter injects a titular personality across the buttery mid-foot Swooshes, insoles, enamel dubraes and the heel tab’s embroidered branding before finishing the chosen hue with a wine-red tint outfitting the tongue tab. While the aforementioned has crafted a synonymous two-toned ensemble, shades of buttercream break up the simplistic color blocking across the laces and midsole unit while an OG gum tread concludes the overall composition.

While we await further release details, enjoy official images of the Nike Air Force 1 Low “University Red/Cream” below in the meantime.
