Nike's iconic Air Force 1 sneakers get a new update that offers two premium suede colorway designs for the season. There is the selection of either Red Suede or Blue Suede -- both give off a worn-in aesthetic to shine a spotlight on the texture of the design.
The top of the shoe is detailed with a Nike Air tongue tag and right below that are the cream tonal laces. This color can also be seen making up the Swoosh, the midsole, and the heel tab. The rest of the upper is adorned in suede materials paneling throughout that have been lightly dyed for a textural look. Both colorways are complete with top-stitching and ivory midsoles.
