50 Years of Hip-Hop: Nike Drops a Special Air Force 1 "Classics"

Nike has long honoured hip-hop culture in both its campaigns and styles, but this pair of Nike AF1s is extra special, paying homage to the popular genre's Bronx origins. The Air Force 1 "Classics" celebrates 50 years of hip-hop with a sleek new iteration. The elegant colour palette features a white upper and cream midsole, making it perfect for everyday wear. 

 

The colour scheme is simple but powerful — a hint of grey on the outsole and sprayed-on black Swooshes that show Nike's style and finesse. There's also Nike branding on the tongue, insole, and insole, but the real eye-catcher is the exclusive "50 Years of Hip-Hop" badge on the top of the tongue and the "NIKE CLASSICS" text stylised in the style of youth labels — a nice touch! To top it all off, a gold microphone tag has also been added — something special to commemorate Nike's journey with hip-hop over the last 50 years.

 

Stay tuned with us and don't miss the release of the Nike Air Force 1 "Classics". We suspect a drop in the next few weeks.
