The Air Force 1 Supreme sneaker
Supreme , whose founder is James Jebbia , appeared in 1994 in New York on Lafayette Street. At that time, the brand was very focused. Indeed, Supreme offered above all a clothing line intended for skateboarding. Moreover, the salespeople present in the store were mainly big fans of skateboarding. Furthermore, even if Mr. Jebbia's label was intended to be rather discreet in its beginnings, the Supreme brand quickly met with success, and was thus noticed by the trainers giant, the very famous Nike , well known for its model of Air Force 1 shoe.
Especially since in 2002, the swoosh brand conceptualized its first series of trainers intended for skateboarding: the Nike Skateboarding (or Nike SB) range. It was therefore obvious for Nike to seek help from Supreme , the new favorite brand of skaters. The latter was convinced and willingly agreed to contribute to the project, especially as it was an opportunity to propel Supreme to the forefront. It is in this context that the SB range appeared in 2002, with the Nike Dunk Low Pro SB Supreme White and the Black Cement. The success very quickly lived up to expectations: Nike Supreme trainers caused a sensation in the United States and, later, throughout the world. Following this first victory, the two streetwear icons decided to continue working together. Since then, dozens of sneakers from the collab have appeared, including the famous Air Force 1 Supreme , which we are focusing on in this category.
Appearance of the first AF1 Supreme shoe by Nike
It was in 2018 that the first Supreme Air Force 1 sneakers were released. It was an up-and-coming version of the Air Force 1.
At the start of 2020, Supreme had already made our mouths water by revealing some official images of its collaboration with Nike in a low version of the AF1 silhouette. It was at the beginning of March 2020 that the suspense ended, when Supreme and Nike released their first pair of Air Force One Low Supreme . The new trainer , which joins the famous Air Force 1 range, offers a very refined style. Indeed, the first AF1 Supreme takes up the codes of the traditional Air Force One : a leather base and a large side swoosh. The difference is mainly found in the branding: a Supreme logo box is placed on the heel, and laces with the Supreme logo adorn the upper of the sneaker. When it was released, the Nike Air Force 1 Supreme was available in two colors, we found the white version a top seller, the Air Force 1 Supreme White then the black version: the AF1 Supreme Black .
The White Air Force 1 Supreme
To get the ball rolling, let's start by painting the portrait of the essential Air Force 1 Supreme White , already mentioned in the paragraph above. Based on the lines of the traditional Nike Air Force , the Supreme Nike Air Force 1 features the Supreme branding on its heel and at the laces. The two details signed Supreme are tinted with a bright red which aptly breaks the immaculate and very neutral appearance of the Air Force 1 Supreme . In this regard, we particularly appreciate the conservative aspect of the Nike AF1 Supreme : in fact, they have absolutely not been distorted by the New York brand Supreme .
The Nike Air Force 1 Low Black Supreme model
The black Air Force 1 Supreme , like the white version, offers a very classic style. Indeed, the Supreme sneaker is adorned with a black leather base, a black side swoosh and a black sole. A few touches of color are still visible: we find the red Supreme box logo, still at the heel, and black and white branded laces. In short, thanks to its muted, neutral and elegant black, the pair of Supreme sneakers can easily be worn with everything!
The collaboration between the Supreme brand, the NBA and Nike ( Air Force 1)
The white Air Force One NBA turns out to be quite original: with its high structure, its Velcro collar, and its NBA flocking, this new Air Force promises to please NBA fans. In terms of the materials of the sneaker, we stick with traditional white leather. The Nike branding , as usual, is on the quarter panel of the shoe. The Supreme logo finds its place on the toebox of the Air Force 1 NBA, and on the velcro of the shoe in a university-style font. Also, and this is where the particularity of the supreme trainer lies, we note on it the presence of the emblems of different NBA teams: among them, the logo of the Boston Celtics, the Los Angeles Lakers, and the Bulls from Chicago. The Air Force 1 NBA Supreme Black also exists for fans of black!
