Celebrating its 40th anniversary this year with plenty of retros and new designs across the board, the Nike Air Force 1 is still one of the most popular silhouettes. The mid top variant is often considered by many to be the black sheep of the Air Force 1 family, however Nike is planning on releasing multiple iterations including an “Independence Day” retro this year. Now we have our first look at the Nike Air Force 1 Mid Jewel “Ale Brown.”
Constructed with a white tumbled leather base, the rest of the silhouette provides earth-tone and colorful vibes. Surrounding the perforated toe box, a pearlized “Ale Brown” leather shines. Just above, an orange mini Nike Swoosh and AF1 branded dubrae compliment the white on white eyelet and laces. On the collar, the same brown pearlized leather makes up the lockdown strap with Nike branding on the end of the strap in orange.
Behind this strap, the back of the orange branded tongue tag presents a cartoon of two humanized Nike Swooshes stating “Inside out or outside in, as long as you’re right within”. Orange jeweled Nike Swoosh pops off the plain tumbled leather of the mid foot, accented by the brown pearlized leather heel overlay. Standard Nike Air branding makes its way to the heel tab surrounded by white tumbled leather. Rounding out the look, a cream midsole and outsole gives off vintage vibes.
The Nike Air Force 1 Mid Jewel Ale Brown is set to be released in 2022. It will drop via Nike and select retailers online and in-store. Coming in men's sizing, this pair will retail for $140.
