The Nike Air Force 1 is a timeless classic with roots stretching back to the early 1980s. Originally introduced as a basketball sneaker, it has since transcended into a lifestyle favorite for sneaker heads and fashion lovers alike. As part of their on-going partnership, Dior has taken the iconic sneaker to the next level with unique designs and intricate details that stay true to the Nike Air Force 1 silhouette.
The Dior x Nike Air Force 1 collection launched in April 2020 with the iconic white leather upper, which featured the unmistakable ‘DIOR’ branding across the sides of the sneaker. The pioneering gum sole with the classic AF-1 logo was also present throughout the collection. The limited edition collection saw a huge demand with its sleek shape and luxurious style of the Nike Air Force 1 combined with the iconic branding of Dior.
For the release of the one-of-a-kind collaboration, the French house saw fit to complete the collection with an all-black colorway, a cream-colored mid cut, and an oversized Dior logo highlighted atop reflective panels on the uppers. The vintage look of the sneakers was emphasized by the worn-in color palette, a tribute to the iconic sneaker’s roots.
The Dior x Nike Air Force 1 includes a range of other models that offer premium leather, mesh and metal hardware details. Dior’s commitment to the classic style of the sneaker has produced a range of sneakers with a timeless look that brings together luxury and street style.
The Dior x Nike Air Force 1 collaboration is, in many ways, the ultimate expression of a timeless sneaker silhouette bestowed with a luxurious edge. From subtle, classic designs to bold, statement-making looks, the Dior x Nike Air Force 1 collection truly has something to fit anyone’s taste.
