On-Foot: Nike Drop an Air Force 1 'Rose' Tribute
It’s no secret that love a tribute release. Whether they drop a 1-1 retro or remix a favourite colourway, they’re well known for mining their archives for inspiration.
For their latest celebration of the old guard, the Swoosh are tipping their hat to the High ‘Rose’ from 2002.
In 2018, the AF-1 arrives as a low-top and switches the original black patent finish for soft velvet in the same shady hue. The eponymous rose remains in the same place, tucked at the heel, for a subtle floral hit. Premium finishes like gold aglets and gold ‘2018’ dubraes add the final opulent flourishes to this fine Force.
If you’re keen for a bit of luxury, these are available from now.
