[Nike](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-force-1-mid-sneaker) continues to work in collaboration with [Off-White](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-baller) and this time around, the two giant brands launch a Ghost Grey tonal iteration of the iconic [Air Force 1](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/light-smoke-grey) sneaker model. It is a monochromatic look that strays away from a bright tonal palette, receiving a neutral hue. It is constructed from leather materials and is rumored to only be available in Paris.

Due to the city-exclusivity, the release will be also a mark towards a new strategy that highlights the collaborative pairs. Some details of the shoe include the signature hangtag on the laces -- this time, it is done in the same grey palette as the rest of the shoe. There is also the "AIR" on the midsole in a white hue to add tonal contrast.
