Nike Air Force 1 '07 'Cacao Plaid' Pack
The Nike Air Force 1 gets formal in “Cacao” plaid.
Nothing says the fall season more than warm fleece flannels coated in varying shades of plaid. Both cuts of AF1 are reminiscent of the glory days of the silhouette, where it was an insider game only.
The Air Force 1 Mid is the latest construction to join the fray, employing an aesthetic akin to a chocolate and vanilla soft serve swirl.
A cream-coloured base layer that fills its leather vamp, mid-foot panel and back tab. chocolate brown overlays on the ankle strap and laces and a tartan swoosh. Underfoot the cream tones resume for a clad midsole accompanied by brown “AIR” branding sitting a top a dark caramel gum-sole.
Accompanying the AF1 Mid is the Low version, whose inclusion continues to celebrate its 40th anniversary along with a slew of experimental styles.
Recently, Bruce Kilgore’s iconic design emerged in shades of “Cacao” and plaid patterns. Tumbled leather takes over the majority of the sneaker’s upper, with profile swooshes opting for a pebbled style that contrasts their surroundings in a clean off-white. Labels on the tongue and upper heel panels follow suit, as does the nostalgic midsole.
