A popular streetwear label, [Anti Social Social Club](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/anti-social-social-club-2), has been keeping busy lately with a number of pop-up shops and collaborative lines, with its most recent being a pair of new [Air Force 1s](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sushi-club) that were made with [Nike](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-max-plus-sneakers-1).

Staying true to the classic make of the model, Anti Social Social Club leaves the upper a stark white, which matches perfectly with the sole, laces and lining as well. In order to add a little diversity to the new Air Force 1s, the streetwear brand supplies its name in a whimsical font to the sides of the uppers.

Meanwhile, the tongue of one sneaker sports the word "GET," while the other says "WEIRD." With the collaborative design being debuted at ComplexCon, only 24 pairs will be available -- with 12 a day given away in a raffle.
