After an onslaught of themed releases and 40th-anniversary editions, it’s great to see the Air Force 1 return to regular programming; but if you know the Air Force 1, “regular” is not a thing for the silhouette. Though this new Air Force 1 Low “Picante” begins in basic finishes, a small peppering of shiny accents elevates the pair from simple to stunning.
A heavily-tumbled white leather upper works with tonal mesh tongues, color-matched liners and laces, and an all-white sole unit underfoot. It’s the brand embellishments that play the biggest role in the pair’s character, with metallic red-orange Swooshes of the titular hue working with chrome rear overlays and matching silver touches to the tongue branding, forefoot mini Swoosh, and midsole detail.
Expect to see these releases soon alongside a handful of like-color options, including one in black and “Blue Lightning”. Until concrete news arrives, take the first and official look at the pair below, and keep your eyes glued to our official Twitter account for further updates on its release.
