NOCTA and Nike work in collaboration to launch the newest iteration of the Air Force 1 sneaker model for the season. It is set to launch later this year in December available through the Nike SNKRS app. It boasts a simplistic design language with a white tonal palette throughout the entire silhouette.
It has an engraved detail that reads "Love You Forever" which is true to Drake's aesthetics. Additional details include the heart molds that are seen in place of the usual signature star-studded outsole unit. The upper itself is made from a premium tumbled leather material with perforations at the toe box and rounded out with crisp white laces for a clean and versatile look.
