Air Force 1 Low “3X Celebration”
Nike is doubling down on premium leather upgrades for the Air Force 1, honouring its legacy by blending timeless style with modern luxury. By Leatherbiz.
The Air Force 1 ’07 LV8 “Since 1982” Sunset and the upcoming Air Force 1 Low “3X Celebration” showcase distinct leather designs, reimagining the classic sneaker with intricate details and high-quality craftsmanship.
The “Since 1982” Sunset edition revisits the charm of vintage footwear with a brown leather upper that sports a rich patina, evoking a sun-aged look. Complete with a retro tongue tab that references the AF1’s origin, this model captures a sense of heritage and quality.
Meanwhile, the Air Force 1 Low “3X Celebration”, slated for a March 2025 release, draws on decades of AF1 design history, combining multiple leather combinations from past white AF1 iterations. Featuring elements like Italian leather, croc print, patent, and woven details, this all-white iteration offers a layered homage to the silhouette’s diverse legacy, tied together by signature tumbled leather accents.
These releases reflect Nike’s commitment to enhancing the Air Force 1 with rich leather finishes, proving that this icon remains at the forefront of design evolution in sneaker culture.
