The Nike + R.T. Air Force 1 is a beige basketball shoe that aims to symboloze the power of sport to bring people together.
These shoes are crafted out of a supple material that provides both comfort and breathability, while a leather Swoosh adds an eye-catching contrast. The shoes' tongue and heels meanwhile are made out of synthetic suede material. They are fitted with heat-pressed no-sew panels that both intensify their strength and enhance their appearance.
The shoe has a low-profile midsole and a non-marking rubber outsole for enhanced traction and resilience.
Each pair of the Nike + R.T. Air Force 1 comes wrapped in custom Nike + R.T. Air Force 1 packaging. The collection itself will be available at NikeLab locations around the world starting October 16.
