Hot on the heels of their sell-out collaboration last summer, Nike and Jacquemus are back at it with a distinct new take on a classic. Taking the legendary Air Force 1 and casting it through the surreal eye of Simon Porte Jacquemus, the J Force 1 is a playful morphing of two distinct styles.
A classic AF1 upper appears hand-woven to a Jacquemus sole as if the two shoes had found their way into Jeff Goldblum’s teleportation pods in The Fly. The sole, emblazoned with a reversed Jacquemus logo, allows you to proudly boast about the collab to those literally following in your footsteps.
It’s a tongue-in-cheek melding of two distinct styles, Nike’s trademark dubrae is playfully stamped with “JF1” and the swoosh is rendered in metal, adding a touch of luxury to the collaboration.
Much like the pair’s last collaboration, the JF1s are set to be a shoe of the summer, so you’ll have to act quick to grab a pair – exclusively available at Jacquemus.com from June 13th and across select Nike retail globally on June 21st.
