TRIANGLE OFFENSE: THE THIRD AND FINAL NIKE + R. T. AIR FORCE 1 COLLECTION (2)
Tisci’s intent with the nike air max 95 + R. T. AF1 collection was to exemplify the distinct personalities of this tribe with a collection that celebrates its diversity through three generations of loyalty. The White Collection speaks to Tisci’s respect for the heritage of the AF1 by preserving the purity of the original. The Black Collection underscores his admiration for subversive street culture with a mechanical expression, and the Beige Collection serves as an initiation for new members to join diehards under one love for the AF1.
As with the earlier collections, the nike air max 87 + R. T. AF1 Collection in beige introduces four striking styles crafted with premium leather. The supple material provides comfort and durability, while a tumbled leather Swoosh adds eye-catching contrast. Similarly, the shoes’ tongues and heels are fashioned from synthetic suede, with heat-pressed TPU no-sew panels that enhance their strength and intensify their appearance—as do modified toe box perforations.
A new, low-profile midsole unites lightweight Phylon cushioning with Tisci’s trademark bravado—visible via progressive textures and detailed overlays—and joint R. T. and nike air max 90 Air branding. The shoes also boast a cup sole and a non-marking rubber outsole, which enhances traction and resilience, and underscores a focus on functionality.
These defining features manifest in the Nike + R. T. Air Force 1 Lo: a rebellious take on the game-changing shoe introduced in 1982; the Nike + R. T. Air Force 1 Mid: a remix of the 1990s classic; the nike free 3.0 + R. T. Air Force 1 Hi: an exaggerated version of the celebrated street-sport style that features mask-like heel applications and an embellished height; and the Nike + R. T. Air Force 1 Boot, an avant-garde design specifically for women, which extends the shoe to knee height.
Additionally, each pair comes wrapped in custom Nike + R. T. Air Force 1 packaging.
The Nike + R. T. Air Force 1 Beige Collection hits NikeLab locations around the world and nike air max 87 womens on Oct. 16. For more information follow @nikelab for the latest release details.
