Nigo began teasing his next Nike release earlier this month, featuring a crisp all-white colorway for the Air Force 3. This week, the second pair from the pack has emerge featuring a black, white, and chrome palette.
Nigo first announced his collaborative partnership with Nike about two years ago now, in 2023. The Japanese designer and founder of BAPE did not release his first project until a year and a half later, in Fall 2024, which features a fairly unconventional choice of sneaker, the Air Force 3. Originally released in 1988, the AF3 never quite had the same public appeal as the original, and was shelved in the Nike archive for years. Now, Nigo has released a handful of colors over the past six months, and is preparing for another round of styles this month.
When Nigo first teased his all-white and gold edition of the Nike Air Force 3 a few weeks ago, the logical assumption was that it would be paired with a matching neutral look, and it has finally surfaced today. Taking on the same construction of textured animal leathers, mostly croc and snakeskin, this pair features a nearly all-black build, adding white Swooshes and midsoles. The ornaments and heel counters on this look come in a metallic chrome silver finish, with additional laces, pines, and patches to dress it up as you see fit.
NIGO X NIKE AIR FORCE 3 “BLACK CROC” RELEASE INFORMATION
The next release from Japanese designer Nigo and Nike has not been announced yet, but is currently expected to release on April 24th, 2025. Once again featuring the Air Force 3, the latest pair sports a dark all-black crocodile leather look with white accents, and will likely be available from both partners and select retailers for $150.
