Combining two of the brand’s most revolutionary cushioning technologies, the newest take on the Uptown — the Air Force 1 React — is somewhat of a strange one, as it enlists a similar inside-out aesthetic to that seen on this recently-revealed Air Jordan 1, but also employs a distinct “Split” at the midfoot that separates said cushioning. With the back half benefitting from contemporary React Foam, the sneaker’s rear-end replicates the era in which it was devised. The front half is equipped with Air, and proffers a more traditional leather build to suit the technology’s age.
Now, after appearing in a handful of light-based colorways comes this Air Force 1 React “Grey Mint” which, as the name suggests, boasts a simple black greyscale base set against soft mint React Foam cushioning — most of which is visible through the semi-translucent outsoles in the rear. It’s met by striking black checks and rear pulls, with subtle pops of yellow along the eyestays, and simple white soles towards the forefoot.
