In summer 2025, Nike will launch the Air Force 1 Low ‘Photon Dust,’ a bold variation on its iconic classic. It remains true to its 1980s heritage as a basketball shoe, but at the same time features a modern design with new materials and details.

The upper is mainly made of classic smooth leather, but has been given a technical update: mesh inserts on the quarter panels and synthetic overlays provide more structure and a modern look. Two sewn-on tape stripes running vertically across the heel and horizontally across the side panel are particularly striking. A ballistic Swoosh, TPU eyelets and a mix of textile and synthetic leather materials round off the upgrade.

The ‘Photon Dust/Black/University Blue/White’ colourway combines a soft grey with bright accents in plain blue and black. A second colourway in white/mid navy/flash has also been announced.

Despite the new details, the sneaker remains true to the original in terms of technology and style: a stitched cup sole with Nike Air cushioning ensures comfort, while the low profile, clean silhouette and indestructible rubber sole perfectly capture the legacy look.

It will be released on 20 June 2025 and will cost €130. With its mix of classic proportions and new materials, it is ideal for those who love retro but don't want to compromise on innovation.

The sneaker will be available on Nike.com and at selected Nike retailers. If you want to make sure you don't miss any restocks or new colourways for this release, stay up to date with Grailify.
