Nike has given the Air Force 1 silhouette another opulent makeover, this time seeing all-over, emerald-colorward stained glass window embroidery. The mostly monochromatic upper features a veritable wealth of embroidered details — ranging from traditional star-style shapes to cleverly placed small Swooshes — while alternate black branding on the tongue patch and heel provide a small touch of contrast. The upper is decidedly leaning towards the luxurious side of the spectrum, the bottom opts to keep things clean and simple with a straightforward white Air Force 1 midsole.
The Nike Air Force 1 ‘07 Premium 3 in “Green Abyss/Light Blue Fury/Spirit Teal/Indigo Force” are available now over on nike.com for $130 USD.
