When it comes to blending contemporary sneaker culture with nostalgia, NIGO and Nike are rewriting the rulebook with their latest Air Force 3.
After a stellar debut collaboration of the Air Force 3 Low ‘White Multicolor’, the duo is due to turn heads yet again with the latest iteration of the Nike Air Force 3, dropping just in time for the Christmas season.
Leaked earlier in the year and now officially revealed, this brown AF3 goes full beast mode with its hairy, textured upper. This tactile approach channels the rugged, earthy vibes of the jungle, a fitting homage to Planet of the Apes – a film NIGO holds close to his heart. Known for his unparalleled collection of movie memorabilia and for incorporating cinematic themes into his creative ventures (remember BAPE?), this sneaker is yet another testament to his unique vision.
Boasting a rich palette of earthy browns accented by jungle-inspired details, the silhouette expresses luxurious embossed overlays, and velvety Swooshes that elevate their look. The plush lining adds a touch of decadence, ensuring that while these sneakers are wild in design, they’re smooth in comfort. For an extra bit of fun, the signature “I” and “G” patches make a return. Enthusiasts who scored the debut pairs can now complete the puzzle to spell out “NIGO” – a playful nod to collectors.
In true NIGO fashion, the collaboration isn’t limited to footwear. The promotional campaign features the creative multi-hyphenate posing alongside simian action figures, which will be available separately according to the word on the street. This playful addition transforms the collaboration into a collectible experience that goes beyond the traditional sneakerhead offering.
The NIGO x Nike Air Force 3 (HQ0260-201) lands 19TH DECEMBER 2024 at NIKE SNKRS. Shop via the banner below…
