Air Force 1s in women’s fashion
Nike Air Force 1s were first spotted on the court in 1982, noted for their uniquely chunky soles and Velcro strap around the ankle. The original design by Bruce Kilgore was only available as a high top in neutral colours when they hit retail shelves in 1983, but as its popularity grew, a low top model was added. Due to its timeless silhouette theAF1 Lows became the frontrunner within the collection, and to this day continues to be one of the most popular sneaker models worldwide.
Nike’s original plan was to retire the Air Force 1s after their initial run, but their immense popularity led to Nike keeping the silhouette for good! The iconic sneaker can now be spotted on the feet of celebrities, sneakerheads, athletes and everyone in between.
Foot Locker’s style range
In the decades since their original release, AF1s have evolved to include a number of different styles. Foot Locker carries a selection of these models, meaning you’re spoilt for choice!
Air Force 1 High Top
The original AF1s! High tops go above your ankle and include an adjustable upper strap for added cushioning and a more secure fit.
Air Force 1 Low Top
A variation of the high top, they’re super similar except they cut off below the ankle instead of above it. The Low Top is the AF1 most people will recognise.
Air Force 1 ‘07
This style was created to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the original! The model pays homage to the original while also having some slight mods to keep them up to date with modern trends.
Air Force 1 ’07 LV8
The slightly elevated sole of this shoe is its namesake, LV8 means elevate! So this shoe is like its predecessor, but taller.
Air Force 1 Flyknit
The woven material of the Flyknit makes it more lightweight and breathable than the classic leather shoe. Same shoe, a fraction of the weight!
Air Force 1 Pixel
The AF1 Pixel has a textured sole that gives it a glitchy/pixelated appearance. The Pixel comes in a range of unique patterns and colourways to add to its uniqueness.
