\n\t\u201cWhat began as mutual admiration evolved into a creative partnership rooted in rarified taste, artistry and design \u2014 brought to life through a vibrant expression of the 2001 Air Force 1, which Nigo and Nike designers reprised for his multi-season Air Force 1 journey,\u201d reads the statement.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI really like the harmony of the enamel material color that Nigo expressed. And the special shoelace details that I haven\u2019t seen often bring out the charm of the sneakers even more. It\u2019s so good,\u201d said j-hope about the unique design of the shoe, which features a glossy Burnt Sunrise and Metallic gold leather upper, Chlorine Blue accents and, on the insole, a collection of motifs featuring \u201csignature squirrel graphics that embody j-hope\u2019s energetic spirit.\u201d <\/p>\n

\n\tThe heel of the shoe and its tongue tag also feature co-branding with Nigo and j-hope\u2019s names on them and, instead of standard cotton laces, the sneakers have braided, multicolor ropes that pick up on the overall color scheme.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI think j-hope is one of the few people who can become a true ambassador for culture and help carry it forward to the next generation,\u201d said Nigo in the announcement of the shoe that comes in a custom shoebox featuring a mix of the sneaker\u2019s colorway and the men\u2019s names in bold print above the Nike swoosh.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Nike x Nigo x j-hope Air Force 1 will launch exclusively on Oct. 17 here, followed by a global launch on Oct. 22 on Nike\u2019s SNKRS app and at select retail outlets.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
