[Nike](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soft-pearl-colorway) introduces a Galactic Jade colorway option of the Air Force 1 Craft sneaker model. This gives the base foundation of the upper two [tonal themes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coconut-milk-2). The construction sees premium tumbled leather in a Galactic Jade hue balanced out with a deeper Midnight Navy hue as the accenting color.

The former color details the tongue, the dyed laces, and the sock lining. The darker color makes up the heel overlays and the branding Swoosh, which is notably in a [soft suede](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blue-suede). Additional details include AF1 branding over the tongue and at the insoles that are printed in a white text. The laces are also complete in a golden finish rounded out by Air cushioned midsoles as the foundation.
