# Jeweled-Logo Nubuck Sneakers Nike's Air Force 1 Sneakers Receive a Gradient Branding Accent By Amy Duong | Published 2018-12-05 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nikes-air-force-1-sneakers References: [hypebeast](https://hypebeast.com/2018/12/nike-air-force-1-07-premium-active-fuchsia-oversized-jewel-swoosh) & [store.nike](https://store.nike.com/us/en_us/) Nike's Air Force 1 sneakers are one of the label's most iconic designs and its latest iteration spotlight the signature Swoosh detail. It is complete in the '07 Premium' make-up and showcases hues of 'Active Fuchsia' and 'Blue Lagoon' throughout the large three-dimensional Swoosh. To stand out even further, it contrasts against the all-black upper constructed from nubuck materials along with black tonal stitching and a black lacing system. This sits on top of a white midsole with an additional pop of color found at the Active Fuchsia outsole foundation. Notably, the Swoosh boasts a gradient visual effect and adorns not only both sides of the sneaker but also the heel counter in a miniature iteration. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.0/10 - Popularity: 7% | Activity: 16% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/shoes) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Gradient Branding:** Opportunity for brands to incorporate gradient visual effects in their logos or branding to add a unique and eye-catching element. - **Contrasting Details:** Potential for designers to experiment with contrasting colors and textures in product designs to create a bold and distinctive look. - **Miniature Iterations:** Possibility for brands to incorporate smaller versions of their logos or branding elements in unexpected places to create an element of surprise and playfulness. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Footwear:** Opportunity for footwear companies to incorporate gradient branding and contrasting details in their designs to create visually striking sneakers. - **Fashion:** Potential for fashion brands to apply gradient visual effects and contrasting details in their clothing and accessories to capture attention and differentiate their products. - **Graphic Design:** Possibility for graphic designers to explore the use of gradient visual effects and miniature iterations in logos and branding projects to create compelling and unique visuals. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Pearlescent Soft Tonal Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soft-pearl-colorway.md) - [Supple Blue Lifestyle Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blue-suede.md) - [Silver Accent Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/summit-whitemetallic-silver.md) - [Paisley Patterned Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-force-1-low-paisley.md) - [Sleek Textural Sneaker Colorways](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/black-ostrich.md) - [Retro Translucent Lifestyle Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/invisible-woman-20.md) - [Butterfly-Motif Lifestyle Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/butterflies-edition.md) - [Textural Stealthy Lifestyle Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/black-cat-colorway.md) - [Premium Low-Cut Lifestyle Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-force-1-low-paris.md)
