The world-famous Nike Swoosh has humble beginnings. Designed by a friend of a friend, the Check has since become one of the world’s most recognizable motifs. It’s gone through a handful of changes over its 50 years in use, and Nike is celebrating the variations through a special “First Use” collection of classics. Now, another Air Force 1 joins the pack, this one anchored in sail and sand.
Just like the previously-previewed options, this Air Force 1 identifies June 18th, 1971 as the trademarked date, stamped below the medial outlined Swoosh. Vintage cursive Nike branding in the rear arrives atop a cracked orange leather overlay, and is channeled at the tongue’s retro tag. Side Swooshes boast a leather of light blue hue — a color mimicked at the midsole stitchwork. Completing the design is a gum rubber outsole, collection-specific insoles, and special lace bling — a golden Swoosh mounted with a solitary diamond.
Though a release date did not accompany the official image set below, you should expect to see pairs of the Nike Air Force 1 Low “First Use” arrive at select retailers soon.
