Premium leather is embossed with a crocodile-skin design. Low-cut collar provides a natural fit around the ankle area. Perforations in the toe area enhance ventilation. Polyurethane midsole with an Air-Sole unit cushions each step. Rubber cupsole gives a throwback look. After revolutionizing the game in 1982 as the first basketball shoe to house Nike Air, the Nike Air Force 1 transcended its original role, becoming a cultural and fashion icon. This modern update holds true to its roots with soft, springy cushioning and a massive midsole, but brings style to the forefront with a deluxe leather upper.
