Nike, Inc. and the OHSU Doernbecher Children’s Hospital unveiled their latest Doernbecher Freestyle Collection—dubbed "Heart of a Hero"—on Oct. 23. Although pairs are yet to become available to the public, the partnership has just unveiled a special one-off Air Force 1 project developed with the help of Chipotle for one of the program's patient-designers.
Oli Fasone-Lancaster, a 10-year-old aspiring chef, contributed a food-inspired Air Force 1 '07 to this year's Doernbecher Freestyle range. A vocal Chipotle fanatic, the Oregon-native was gifted a custom version of his vision—complete with Chipotle branding and other elements associated with the popular food chain.
The sneaker includes numerous details reminiscent of the pair that will become available to the public throughout the Holiday 2025 season, but quickly differentiates itself through silver panels referencing aluminum packaging, guac-like green swooshes, and official logos from the Mexican-inspired kitchen. The unexpected collaboration arrives with thematic packaging and utensil-shaped add-ons that playfully nod to Fasone-Lancaster's love of Chipotle.
Check out the exclusive AF-1 ahead. When you're done, check out all Jordan release dates confirmed over the next year.

Oli Fasone-Lancaster's Air Force 1 project looks to the culinary world for inspiration.
Nods to his signature dishes—veggie tacos and African yam stew—are found behind the shoe's tongues, while miniature versions of a spatula, fork and spoon are tucked into the lateral Swoosh.
Other elements baked into the AF-1 sneaker include a rainbow gradient on the outsole—a symbol of hope and positivity Fasone-Lancaster revisited throughout his cancer treatment—the number 572 on the tongue that accounts for the number of loops the 9-year-old walked around the Doernbecher oncology inpatient unit (which equates to a marathon), and interchangeable patches on the spine.
