[Nike](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-force-1-mid-sneaker) works in collaboration with Los Angeles-based streetwear imprint UNDEFEATED on another version of the [Air Force 1](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-force-1-low-paisley) sneaker model. It is inspired by previous archives that stem from 2005, highlighting the Dunk High collaboration that was detailed with bright hues throughout the silhouette.

Travis Scott showcased the new look in a teased preview on his [Instagram](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/joe-freshgoods-and-new-balance) story. It highlights the colorful look that features hues of pink, purple, brown, blue, black, and yellow throughout the paneled upper. The main difference is highlighted by the construction, which is now made with glossy patent leather instead of the smooth leather from the previous launch. It all rests on top of minty tonal midsoles and neon outsoles.
