Nike introduces a new Ale Brown colorway adorning the Air Force 1 Mid sneaker model for the season as it continues to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the iconic silhouette. Marking the special four-decade milestone, the sportswear brand has been launching designs to honor the past and present of the sneaker.
This time, the sneakers are designed with premium leather across the uppers in white along with perforated toe boxes. The crisp white continues along with the collars, the quarters, and the heels. Glossy straps overlay on top of the sneakers for a brighter contrast and Total Orange marks the jeweled Swooshes, the embroidered Swooshes, heels, the tongue, and the branding on the lace dubreas.
