Nike celebrates the ongoing Paris Olympics currently with a pair of the Air Force 1 Low Paris silhouette. The shoes are inspired by the vibrant city and it actually made its debut earlier this year as a part of the brand's SNKRS Showcase. The Paris Air Force shoes are designed with a rich brown shade throughout the silhouette and are crafted from a soft leather material.
The final result is a classic look that is backed by the reimagined toe box with signature perforations that are informed in a unique pattern. The badge along the heel references a stone tablet style and the soles have an eerie look as well covered with a translucent finish.
