The iconic Air Force 1 Low sneaker model gets a new retro design update with the Fiesta iteration. The new look is made to join the NBA 75th Anniversary collection, celebrating a special milestone for the sports franchise. The brand taps into its archives of the basketball league to properly celebrate three-quarters of a century.
Notably, the NBA 1996 All-Star uniforms were known to be one of the most notable and unique jerseys in the history of the franchise. The color palette spotlights teal and its cartoon-style font. This makes a return with the latest shoe, taking the bright color palette of teal, pink, and orange. It can be seen on the heel and at the Swoosh on top of a white and gray base foundation in leather materials.
