Nike is celebrating their legendary Air Force 1 this year, marking forty years of one of the brand’s most recognizable shoes. This week, we have our first look at an Air Force 1 High Vintage in “Sail”, coming soon.

The history of the Nike Air Force 1 should not be anything new to even the most novice sneakerhead. Originally released in 1982, the basketball-turned-lifestyle model is one of the most popular shoes on earth, thanks to its timeless look and endless color and material options. So, with the Swoosh celebrating forty years of Air Force this year, it’s only right they recreate the AF1’s original release in all of its glory. The pair features a largely “Sail” white leather construction, broken up by breathable mesh quarter panels that never made it out of the ’80s with the rest of the silhouette. The original nylon & velcro ankle strap is back, while the Swooshes and outsoles add a flash of neutral grey to break up the otherwise pure white look.
