The Nike Air Force 1 (AF1) is an iconic sneaker model that has become an enduring symbol of street and pop culture since its inception. Named after the president's aircraft, the Air Force One, these shoes were originally released on November 30, 1982. Designed by Bruce Kilgore, they were a revolutionary product at the time, introducing a slew of firsts for the athletic footwear industry.
Bruce Kilgore, Nike's then design director, used his architectural background to design this groundbreaking shoe. He incorporated a slanted shaft for ease of movement, mesh side panels for ventilation, and a circular outsole pattern for superior pivot control. The shoe's most unique feature was the introduction of the Nike Air technology into the midsole, the first of its kind in a basketball shoe. This feature offered the unparalleled cushioning that revolutionized comfort and performance in athletic footwear.
Since its initial release, the Nike Air Force 1 is offered in different cuts to cater to the tastes of various sneaker enthusiasts worldwide. The most recognized are the Low, Mid, and High versions. The AF1 has also been subjected to countless iterations, colorways, and materials, ranging from traditional leathers to more exotic materials like patent leather, suede, and even denim.
