Supreme's New Nike Air Force 1s Are So NY
Supreme has officially announced its Fall/Winter 2021 collection today, and one of the items we’re most excited about is the collaborative “Wheat” Nike Air Force 1. The sneaker will join an all-white and all-black pair as one of three co-branded Air Force 1s that will be restocked continuously throughout the season.
The “Wheat” colorway is particularly noteworthy, as the specific color scheme has long been associated with New York sneakerheads, paying homage to the NYC staple Timberland 6-Inch Boot. Supreme, of course, hails from New York City, making the connection an obvious but simultaneously welcome one.
Emerging in low-top form, the latest Supreme x Nike Air Force 1 is done up in smooth suede on the upper, which incorporates a tonal Swoosh on both sides of the shoe. The streetwear brand's signature box logo is featured at the heel on the lateral side, while additional branding appears via an embroidered Swoosh at the toe and co-branding on the tongue tag, insoles, and lace dubraes.
Supreme's new Air Force 1 Low collab will serve as a follow-up to last year's black and white colorways. Supreme has always had a close relationship with the Swoosh, which was taken a step further when a range of tonal Air Force 1s was introduced as basic products — similar to Supreme’s boxers — that would always be available in the shop.
As it stands, there is currently no concrete release information for the pair, but be sure to check back with us as we will bring you the latest details surrounding the anticipated drop.
