Latin Heritage-Inspired Footwear

Nike Continues to Grow the Somos Familia Pack with an AF1

— October 16, 2022 — Fashion
Nike continues to celebrate Latin Heritage Month with a new addition to the Somos Familia pack of footwear. The latest to join the roster is a pair of Air Force 1 Low shoes. It is detailed with a light tan hue across the base of the upper and made from suede for a soft feel. It is seen making up the lacing system, heel counter, and mudguards.

The pale yellow canvas material is added for a subtle touch of contrast along the medial panels and toe box that is marked with a circle embroidered around the perimeter. The Swoosh branding on the side of the shoe is made from leather and gets a split design with bright red along the tops and white by the rears held together by exposed stitchin.
