PlayStation and Nike Join Forces on The PlayStation ’18 QS
References: nike & highsnobiety
Nike works in collaboration with PlayStation in releasing the Air Force 1 'PlayStation ’18 QS' sneaker silhouette. The two brands have worked in collaboration before, dating back to 2006 -- this latest project takes inspiration from the first partnership. This time, the aesthetic leans toward a PS4-influenced look with updates across the uppers. The sneaker switches out the glossy patent leather from the shoe's eyestay, toe box, and midfoot paneling to the heel with a more muted matte premium leather across the front. Additionally, black lacing systems take the place of the red and purple closure.
There are PlayStation control symbols found on the upper heel, the sole and in holographic jelly Swoosh. These designs are balanced by a white midsole beneath the black uppers. The collaborative Air Force PlayStation ’18 QS sneakers are available starting today for the price of $200 USD on Nike SNKRS Stash.
