Nike's iconic Air Force 1 Low crossed over to the skateboarding side and became downright delectable.

After some time away, the Nike SB x Air Force 1 sneaker returns in a new "Light Chocolate" colorway. The latest versions literally look like they've been dusted in cocoa powder, appearing with velvety brown suede uppers and black accents. It's easily the sweetest take on the skate-ready Forces yet.

On the outside, it still looks like the classic Nike model that grew up on the basketball courts. But Nike SB has performed some minor surgery on the model to bring it up to session-ready standards. For example, the SB Forces feature extra padding and updated tread for better overall protection during falls and shaky landings.

The Nike SB finally released its skate-able Air Force 1s earlier this year, dropping them in "Flax" and "Light Orewood Brown" colorways. And there'd been whispers and even blink-and-miss-it previews of the "Light Chocolate" pairs. But now, Nike is officially making room for the shred-ready dessert.

Nike SB's Air Force 1 "Light Chocolate" sneakers are slated to drop on the SNKRS app on August 25 for $120.

A sweet treat may usually mean the end of a meal, but Nike isn't done just yet. The brand is said to be serving up more Air Force 1 skate shoes later this year. Hopefully, we'll finally get those clean Yuto Horigome sneakers.
