As a part of the Nike 1World Air Force 1 project, the brand looked to work with 18 different influencers across the world. Three different regions were looked to to provide the influencers including, the US, Europe, and Asia. Europe has already seen a couple releases with their 1World Air Force 1’s. Now it’s time for another native of Berlin named feride Uslu to collaborate with Nike on the 1World project. Uslu whose brand Uslu Airlines is known for various collaborations with some of the world’s finest brands but more so for their high quality nail polish.

The kicks are inspired by Uslu Airlines Airplanes and the airport for their Air Force 1. The shoe has sheep lining a material that is used in making the pilots seats on the sneaker. The green on the tongue of the shoe is that way because it’s the same color on all the aviation towers and neon for the uniform color that is worn by airport employees. The shoe laces are White with a Pink stripe going through to represent the cords of a parachute. A store called Wood Wood Berline will be the first store to release this shoe on April 3rd after which the sneaker will be available at select Nike Tier 0 accounts worldwide on April 11th.

This new Air Force 1 x Air Huarache hybrid may not be the first of its kind, but it very well could be the best colorway yet. This latest Premium joint features a similar design to the white on white version that released back in December, but comes with some nice new touches. The mid panel behind the Swoosh uses a woven mesh fabric and the upper’s heel is constructed from a perforated material that appears to be the same as on the tongue and originally the classic Huarache sock-liner. The toe section keeps with the multi-material theme, using smooth royal blue leather. Aside from the solid blue upper, the shoe also features some bright green accents, a clean white sole and an extra pair of blue laces. Like on the other Huarache-inspired Air Force 1 models, you will notice the original Air Huarache tongue is included as well. My Boy at City Gear said the launch date set for these are April 11th and these are looking like a general release so they will most likely hit all Nike retailers on this date.
