The Air Force 1 Low “Paisley” Cleans Up in Black Tie Style

Nike continues to quietly expand its suede-embossed Paisley Pack with a fourth Air Force 1 Low, this time dressed in an all-black execution that leans fully into texture and tonal depth. Following earlier releases in sail, brown, and baby blue, the Nike Air Force 1 Low “Paisley” (Black) shifts the focus away from contrast and toward material-driven design.

The pair is constructed almost entirely from premium black suede, with paisley bandana motifs embossed across the upper. The pattern flows seamlessly from the toe box through the quarter panels and onto the Swoosh itself, creating a layered look that only reveals its complexity up close. Subtle perforations remain intact at the toe, preserving the Air Force 1’s familiar structure beneath the decorative finish.

Tonality carries through the midsole and outsole, both rendered in matching black to maintain a cohesive, understated profile. Gold accents provide the only real contrast, appearing on the lace dubrae and tongue branding for a restrained touch of luxury that mirrors the detailing seen on the earlier Paisley releases. Compared to the lighter colorways in the series, the black option feels more refined and versatile, offering a dressier take on the traditionally casual silhouette.

Like the rest of the Paisley Pack, this release isn’t about loud branding or overt storytelling. Instead, it leans on craftsmanship, texture, and subtle repetition to elevate one of Nike’s most familiar designs. The Nike Air Force 1 Low “Paisley” (Black) fits neatly alongside its predecessors while standing apart as the most reserved — and arguably most wearable — option of the group.

The Nike Air Force 1 Low “Paisley” in Black is expected to release on Nike.com in Spring 2026.
