After months and months of leaks, rumours, and teasers, the NIGO x Nike Air Force 3 “White” has finally been confirmed. Taking on the often-overlooked Air Force 3 silhouette, this special release draws inspiration from the original Air Force 3 High “Escape” from 1988. And thanks to the BAPE founder’s deep-rooted influence within the realms of fashion and streetwear, this is set to be one of the biggest sneakers of the entire year.
The first thing that you’ll notice about NIGO’s AF3 is its extremely playful colour palette. Combining a mix of “White,” “University Red,” “Tour Yellow,” “Pink Foam,” “Blue Void,” and “Lucky Green,” this trainer was destined to turn heads wherever you go. The upper is crafted from perforated leather, ensuring breathability while maintaining a classic aesthetic, while the mesh tongue and ribbed collars add comfort and texture.
The Japanese designer’s first Nike shoe then rests on top of a chunky midsole, and it’s lined with a durable black rubber outsole. All of this then comes packed in a cool shoebox, and it’ll drop alongside a bunch of sweaters, T-shirts, and other must-have accessories.
The NIGO x Nike Air Force III make its debut on September 28th, exclusively at Otsumo Plaza in Tokyo, on humanmade.jp, and at the “I Know Nigo 2” pop-up shop in New York. A broader global release is scheduled for October 4th, available on SNKRS and select retailers. Let us know if you’ll be adding these to your collection, and be sure to keep it locked at Captain Creps for your best chance to secure your size!
