Nike Air Force 1 '07

This dichromatic pair of Nike Air Force 1 ‘07s has an effortless style created by its contrasting colour scheme. Clean white rubber starts things off on the outsole, whose circular grip formations make it hold the ground as the wearer moves about. The same colour extends up around its lugged perimeter, moving across the star-shaped patterns at the toe and heel, before filling out the foam-cushioned midsole above. Embossed Air lettering rises out of the lateral side of the midsole alongside a pair of thick white lines, one of which wraps around the back of the heel to the medial flank.

On the upper, the tone shifts to black, for a dynamic look. This hue appears across the tumbled leather sections that cover the vamp as well as the eyestay and heel. Black laces thread through the asymmetrical eyelets, all the way to the top. Just above the uppermost ones, a black tongue patch can be seen. Sewn into it is a set of Nike Air branding text with the words “Air Force 1” underneath, both written in white so they are clearly visible. The theme of white on black continues on the insole, which has been printed with Nike Air text.

Down the sides of the shoe, impressive white swooshes made of smooth leather stand out powerfully against the darker colour behind. These reach back to meet at the white heel panel, whose black embroidery includes a swoosh sat between the two words in the Nike Air text, thus completing the sneaker with a final captivating contrast.
