Nordstrom's Olivia Kim unveils another sneaker model to add to her No Cover collection alongside Nike. The latest design takes on the Air Force 1 Low as the foundational silhouette. Kim draws inspiration from hip hop and rave culture that thrived during the 90s in New York.
The No Cover capsule features five silhouettes in total and the Air Force 1 model blends a mixture of premium materials. The uppers are constructed from blue corduroy textiles and the Swoosh emblem is informed by faux snakeskin in a glowing hue. Notably, this Swoosh motif has been seen before -- in 1996, the 'Snake' Air Force 1s launched with the same Swoosh. The latest model is set to launch later this week on Halloween.
