Card Game-Themed Sneakers

UNO and Nike Join Forces to Create a Pair of Air Force 1 Sneakers

— October 19, 2021 — Fashion
UNO and Nike work in collaboration to release a special Air Force 1 Low sneaker model. The iconic sneaker model is designed with emblems and tonal palettes that are inspired by the card game. The limited-edition shoe is very much inspired by the game's colors. Starting with rich blue color, it details the mudguards on top of the white toe boxes.

The quarters are finished in red and the back panels are finished in black. Bright yellow makes up the large Swoosh on the lateral side of the shoe. The mesh lining at the interiors and the ankle collars are finished in a stark red and the heel tabs are marked with lime green hues detailed with embroidered Nike Air logos.
