Nike's Flyknit Air Force 1 Has No Business Looking This Beautiful
Highsnobiety is a global fashion and media brand passionate about product and the stories that shape them.
What happens when two great Nike inventions come together as one? You get epic sneakers like a Flyknit Air Force 1s.
We don't get many Flyknit Forces, other than a few special releases like those Robert Kraft pairs and Nike By You customizations. So, it's always refreshing to see the innovative one-piece tech wrapping the forever-classic model for new drops.
That brings me to Nike's latest Flyknit Air Force 1, which has a beautiful "Light Bone" colorway. As with previous Flyknit sneakers, the breezy material blankets the Force's unmistakably sleek upper, resulting in a seamless sea of knitted textures in light brown shades.
What's more, these particular Flyknit Forces boast varying knit details on the toe box and midfoot panel for some added textural goodness. Finally, the Air Force 1 gets topped with a buttery leather Swoosh, and other creamy touches handle the rest of the job.
It's the perfect shoe for summer, inviting a generous breeze and support to your foot during the warm season. And that's probably why Nike plans to drop it during the summer season. The brand really gets it.
The year gets better and better for Air Force 1 Low heads. Nike has already unveiled many new Forces, including those gleaming "All-Star" iterations and pairs with perfectly pumped Swooshes. At the same time, another Air Force 1 reminded us that we've got "Tiffany Forces" at home.
And now? The streets will be fed with these delicious Flyknit steppers.
