If the long-anticipated Free The Youth x Air Jordan 16 is indicative of anything, it’s that the NIKE, Inc. Family is finally ready to celebrate the continent of Africa on a global scale. The lasered AF-1 is part of this effort.
The bulk of the newly-surfaced ’07 LV8 pair is done in a clean “White” finish that allows for the slightest contrast to pop. Forefoot and mid-foot panels feature curved lines that recreate traditional, decorative architecture—be it on windows, doors, or gates. A special Swoosh emblem lands on the lateral heel and silver lace dubrae, further nodding to cultural inspo.
Stay tuned for firm Nike.com release details of the “Laser” Air Force 1. Pairs could land by November.
