If Timberland Made Nike Air Force 1s...
Nike's iconic Air Force 1 Low is back in its workwear uniform for the fall season.
Keeping up what feels like a seasonal tradition, Nike has revived its tough yet velvety-soft nubuck leather Air Force 1 sneakers.
Nike's Forces draw inspiration from rugged boots like Timberlands. The model's own "Flax" colorway even recaptures the essence of Timberland's "Wheat" 6-inch boots.
Also, like standard work boots, Nike's Air Force 1 sneakers feature classic, round, rugged shoelaces. They even have hexagonal eyelets inspired by hex nuts, which further play on the aesthetic.
Nike has put quite a few of its sneakers to "work" this season, giving models like the Air Monarch "dad shoe" and Air More Uptempo Low workwear-inspired makeovers. Nike even has a skate shoe with Timberland-level toughness.
Nike's Air Force 1 "Work Boot", available on the brand's website in the "Flax" colorway for $130, is now back in the field, too.
The grind-approved Forces are expected to release in black and grey schemes as well.
