Nike and Off-White are renewing their collaboration and unveiling one of their most limited pair of sneakers. The two brands are joining forces again to revisit the mythical silhouette of the Nike Air Force 1 after the popular AF1 Off- White Black already released previously. The model was initially revealed on social networks by Virgil Abloh , after he has customized a copy for the Serena Williams, before being officially announced by Nike. Show Exclusively available at the Chicago Museum of Contemporary Art which is dedicating a retrospective to the work of Virgil Abloh, via raffle on the Em pty Gallery website and on the official website Off-WhiteThis ultra-rare model is now available on Wethenew ! In this University version Blue, the Nike Air Force 1 Low Off-White consists of a light blue base. The upper is a mix of box leather with a silver-grey swoosh stitching contrasting with the colour of the pair. We find the branding typical of collaborations Off-White as well as the zip-tie and the red rectangle. The inscriptions signatures of Virgil Abloh are also present in white on the side of the pair. A pair here revisited in a colourful version for a summer under the sign of the sneaker! While a firm release date continues to elude us, the Off-White x Nike Air Force 1 “MCA” continues to be one of the most discussed sneakers of the month. A rumored release at MCA Chicago was squashed by Nike as the brand confirmed that the shoes would drop on Nike SNKRS and on the Frenzy App in the near future, while Virgil Abloh’s label opened up an online raffle for an in-store pick-up at the Empty Gallery in SoHo. Today, official brand images of the shoes have emerged, which in the past has told us that a release could be coming soon at any time. For now, get the best look yet at the blue Off-White Air Force 1 and stay tuned for further release information as it develops.

Share All sharing options for: Air Force 1 x Off-White “Brooklyn”: Sneaker Release Date, Price, Where To BuyNike and Off-White will drop their latest collaboration on the Air Force 1 on Tuesday, this time with a model being dubbed the “Brooklyn” or alternatively “Green Spark” for a retail price of $160.
Similar to some past Air Force 1 collaborations between Off-White and Nike, this drop is tied to a museum exhibit from the late Virgil Abloh. The “Brooklyn” is tied to his “Figures of Speech” exhibition, originally appearing on the feet of employees at the Brooklyn Museum during the exhibit. The previously released ICA University Gold and MCA University Blue colorways were also both tied to the same exhibit at museums in Boston (2021) and Chicago (2019), respectively. Similar to those prior releases, the “Brooklyn” has a bright solid color upper with a silver Swoosh, the customary Off-White zip tie (this time in green) as well as the branding on the medial side of each sneaker with the now customary “Off-White for Nike” text and “Air” on the midsole’s lateral side. The most recent Nike x Off-White collab on the Air Force 1 Mid was perhaps not quite as popular as prior drops, but I think this one may be different. For one, the Air Force 1 low used here is far more popular than the Air Force 1 Mid. Two, the Mid did include the ISPA element of something akin to track spikes on parts of the outsole. Finally, the ties to the “Figures of Speech” exhibit should put it more in line with the aforementioned ICA University Gold and MCA University Blue colorways. The ICA University Gold colorway has an average sale price of $1,629 on StockX with a 730% price premium, while the MCA University Blue has an average sale price of $2,276 with a price premium of 1299%. Best of luck to all looking to pick up a pair on the SNKRS app on Tuesday!
