NIGO's Next Nike Sneaker Is a Different Kind of Animal
NIGO's Nike Air Force 3 sneaker collaboration has gone beast mode again. However, this next round is a different kind of animal, a cold-blooded one, at that.
First looks at NIGO's next Air Force 3 sneaker come from the designer himself. While at a springtime launch event in NYC for his Moncler x Mercedes collab, NIGO laced up in his forthcoming Nike shoe collab, showcasing an all-white spin on the classic Swoosh model. (He's a busy guy — new silhouettes aren't really in the cards)
It's simple stuff, on the surface. But the most interesting part about NIGO's white Air Force 3 is the new animalistic vibe.
Whereas the previous pair went ape mode with textural furry uppers, the latest NIGO Nike shoes come wrapped in slick crocodile-patterned leather uppers for some additional fancy flavor.
And on top of the croc panels, the next NIGO x Nike shoe looks to offer its usual mélange of sportswear touches like ribbed knits and perforated moments where breathability is key.
Finally, NIGO and Nike lightly elevate their next shoe collab with some semi-subtle gold detailing by way of some shiny lace dubrae, bringing an extra touch of elegance to the already quasi-luxe design.
For the NIGO hive wondering about the release date for this newest wild shoe, NIGO's latest Nike Air Force 3 sneaker is expected to drop sometime this month on Nike's website. Nothing official but you can usually trust the sneaker leakers.
Speaking of which, those folks are promising that this NIGO x Nike next drop will be another twofer, including the all-white pair and a not-yet-seen black/grey colorway.
While NIGO and Nike are at it, by the way, let's just bring that Cactus Plant Flea Market collab to the masses, too.
You already know the demand is there.
