Toggled Enclosed Hi-Top Sneakers

Nike's Air Force 1 Shell Gets a Provence Purple Colorway

— October 11, 2021 — Fashion
Nike introduces a new tonal version of the Air Force 1 Shell sneaker model in a Provence Purple palette. The shoes are made from lightweight fabrics across the upper with waterproof elements. It features additional stitching at the top in an exposed style before stacking overlays are finished around the eyelets.

Powder blue details continue around the nylon strap that wraps around the midsole section. The forefoot features a toggle lacing system over the tongue and the heel. Branding details can be found at the small and large Swoosh accents on the lateral side of the shoe. The Air Force 1 tag completes the eyelet cover and finishes at the ankle patch reading "Nike AF1 1982."
