Nike decided to spoil sneakerheads by giving them an exclusive sneak peek at its upcoming releases at its new SNKRS Showcase event last October.
With over 30 new releases revealed, including the return of many archived silhouettes, there was something for everyone. For the Air Force 1 Low, it was revealed that it would be part of a new “World Tour” pack featuring colorways inspired by the cities of Las Vegas, Seoul and Shanghai.
While the "Las Vegas" pair was unveiled earlier this year and released shortly after, we now have an official look at its "Seoul" iteration.
This unique version starts with a dark green grained leather base. Then, the overlays are adorned in black, while a deep purple dresses the reflective Swooshes as well as the laces.
A forest green joins the branding on the tongue and heel, while the shoe is supported by a cushioned sole with a semi-translucent light purple on the midsole and black for the outsole.
Thematic details are provided by a star shape, as well as an embroidered symbol on the inside of the heel and tongue, perhaps referencing the lifting of the curfew in South Korea in 1982.
Nike has yet to announce a release date for this "Seoul" version of the Air Force 1 Low.
Stay tuned for updates as it's likely to launch via Nike SNKRS and at select retailers worldwide this year, with a price tag of around $135 USD.
