Designed by Bruce Kilgore and introduced in 1982, the Nike Air Force 1 was the first ever basketball shoe to feature Nike Air technology, revolutionizing the game and sneaker culture forever. Over three decades since its first release, the Air Force 1 remains true to its roots while earning its status as a fashion staple for seasons to come.

This latest release of the Nike Air Force 1 Low combines two OG Air Jordan 1 colorways as a nod to both iconic silhouettes from the 1980s. The shoe features a mismatch color blocking honoring the OG “Royal” and “Bred” makeups from 1985.

Both feature a Black tumbled leather build with Red and Blue contrasting accents on each shoe. Much like the Air Jordan 1 Mid, this offering features embroidered Swooshes and mesh paneling at the midfoot and tongue. Its “82” motif on the ankle nods to the debut of the original Air Force 1 completed with “Nike Air” branded tongue tags atop White midsoles and Red/Blue rubber outsoles.
