Crimes are about to be committed in all kinds of conditions, with the notorious Triple Black Air Force 1 getting a wInterized GORE-TEXupgrade.

Often touted as the world’s finest fabricators — by streetwear whores at least — GORE-TEX is no stranger to the sneaker world. Their textiles have tailored many footwear options from Timberlands to Chucks and the iconic Air Force 1. Now the manufacturer-come-streetwear stalwart return to the latter for Fall, with a collaborative GORE-TEX x Nike Air Force 1 capsule. Joining the previously previewed Phanton and Black/Navy pair comes this boot-like triple black — the pack is also joined by a handful of Air Force 1 Lows. The winterized GORE-TEX x Nike Air Force 1 WNTR — a part of Nike’s new utilitarian THE10TH range – arrives completely retooled for the harsh year-end weather, with a deconstructed aesthetic that’s so in vogue. High top, zip-up ripstop inner bootie rises above the low-cut leather base — and peers through the vacant mid-panel — offering water resistance for your feet. It arrives on the classic winterized Air Force 1 tread underfoot, but in an atypical icy-translucent finish that matches the tacked-on oversize profile Swoosh, and the pairs comes complete with rugged heel pulls and overlays, and bold “THE10TH” and “GORE-TEX” branding hits on the lateral sides and insoles.

A release date for these Triple Black and the accompanying pairs are still to be announced by the Swoosh, but with the wet season not too far away, you can expect pairs to start rolling out on Nike.com over the coming weeks.
