Riccardo Tisci x Nike Air Force 1 Release Date

Runway roamers know Riccardo Tisci from his work with Givenchy, hip-hop heads know him from Jay Z lyrics, and sneakerheads that encompass both spheres will know him this spring for the Riccardo Tisci x Nike Air Force 1 Collection. Low, Mid, High and Boot builds aim to transcend city, style and gender, as Tisci believes the Air Force 1 already does. “The shoe is universal yet somehow very personal,” Tisci told Telegraph. “I travel all over the world, and I see people wearing the Air Force 1, and they wear it in so many different ways. And so I was thinking, what is the essence of the Air Force 1? And how do I take that essence and make my own statement? For me the Air Force 1 is not about gender, it’s not about a particular city, nor is it about a certain style. The community decides. It’s democratic. It’s love.”

The Riccardo Tisci x Nike Air Force 1 is set to launch in the photographed white installments on March 1st, followed by black based iterations on April 1st. Stay tuned to Snkrs Day for more information and imagery regarding this Riccardo Tisci x Nike collaboration.
