Following celebrated collaborations on the VaporMax 2019 and Blazer Mid, could the Cactus Plant Flea Market x Nike Air Force 1 be the third in line for 2019?
Yup, and it’s all smiles.
First previewed by ASAP Bari – who also debuted the similarly styled Supreme x Nike Air More Uptempo – the Cactus Plant Flea Market Nike Air Force 1 sees the Moses Malone favorite fashioned with an aesthetic similar to Pip’s pair of Uptempos.
While the Nike Air More Uptempo has had its run and then some, this fresh take on the AF1 makes the most of the layered DIY styling that’s currently trending while capitalizing on the surging CPFM brand.
In the time since Bari’s original debut, Travis Scott rocked and essentially debuted an alternative take on this collab.
Much like the Uptempo retros, this pair see an all-white rendition with 3M bubble letters.
It appears “SUN” and “AIR” are scribed over this rendition rather than “FLEA” and “AIR” on the White/Red. However, could this be another Nike By You launch where one could create their own tagging? Recent leaks confirm so.
Playing to that theme, ASAP Rocky debuted a Black/White pair similar to the OG Uptempos in color blocking.
In the time since, our friend Joe La Puma posted a Black/Volt pair once again reminiscent of More Uptempos in regards to styling and color code.
Packaging that reads ‘Nike By Joe’ confirms this is a Nike By You launch much like the CPFM Blazer Mid. Clearly color blocking can be picked by the recipient, what remains unknown is just how the text can be altered.
Stay locked to Snkrs Day for release details on the CPFM x Nike By You Air Force 1.
