Got your fave colour yet? No worries. The "Colour of the Month" series lets you feed your need while celebrating a little-known piece of Nike history—the original Colour of the Month series, back in 1984, may have saved the AF-1 from extinction. That's right, a reissue was uncertain in the shoe's beginning, but sports shops in Baltimore saw them selling like hotcakes and knew the AF-1 would become synonymous with street fashion and culture. So, they asked for custom colourways to sell from their shop fronts … and the rest is history. From pristine materials (update alert: all-over suede) to the grey colourway and even a shoe-cleaning toothbrush, this edition delivers a lesson in coveted off-court style. Every time you rock 'em, make sure to think of the visionary shopkeepers in Baltimore that made it all happen.BenefitsPremium suede upper is soft and durable.Originally designed for performance hoops, Nike Air cushioning delivers lasting comfort.Rubber outsole with heritage hoops pivot circles adds traction and durability.Low-cut, padded collar looks sleek and feels great.Air Force 1Debuting in 1982 as a basketball must-have, the Air Force 1 came into its own in the '90s. The clean look of the classic white-on-white AF-1 was endorsed from the basketball courts to the street and beyond. Finding its rhythm in hip-hop culture, releasing limited collabs and colourways, Air Force 1 became an iconic sneaker around the globe. And with over 2,000 iterations of this staple, its impact on fashion, music and sneaker culture can't be denied.
