Virgil Abloh will be teaming up with MoMA (Museum of Modern Art), designed by Yoshio Taniguchi located in Midtown Manhattan in New York City, for an upcoming Nike Air Force 1 project.
No specific details have been provided behind the design, but it appears to look much like an ordinary Off-White x Nike Air Force 1 Low collab. But this time dressed in Black with Metallic Silver accents. Not really sure how MoMA plays its part on the design aspect, but the shoe ties itself to the Museum of Modern Art on its box label.
