A Family Sneaker Classic: Nike Air Force 1 'Triple White'

Haven Neiman

Considered to be an icon of the alignment of fashion, style, and comfort, the Nike Air Force 1 has transcended the boundaries of culture. The silhouette was first introduced to the world in 1982 by Bruce Kilgore as a basketball trainer. It was a turning point in the sports and sneaker world for its utilization of Nike’s new Nike Air technology, which worked on pressurized air in a tough and flexible bag. This technology added to the sole’s flexibility, elasticity, and durability. Its lightweight and distinctive shape made an impression on millions worldwide, establishing itself as a sneaker staple. Named after the Air Force One plane that the U.S. President travels by, since its original inception, very few variations have been made to the original design. The original design did in fact feature a mesh side panel, toe box, and a mudguard at the front. Nowadays, its modern versions swap the mesh for leather. Additionally, the Air Force One blends seamlessly with any outfit or aesthetic.

The Nike Air Force 1 revolutionized the sneaker world as we knew it. Its radiance is accredited to its stitched overlays at the upper that emphasize heritage style, durability, and support. The premium leather offers optimal detailing, while the low-cut construction provides a clean and streamlined look. The padded collar adds further comfort with each step. The foam at the midsole makes an impression, while the perforated detailing at the toe box adds a breathable touch. Originally designed for performance basketball, its iconic Air cushioning adds lightweight and all-day comfort. The rubber outsole underneath is treated with herringbone traction detailing that provides even more traction and durability. Its versatile shape pairs great with any bottom, whether it's jeans or shorts. The silhouette can be dressed up and down and is perfect for the whole family.
