Nike AF1 Charcoal/Zest
December 30, 2007
2007 marks the 25th anniversary of Air Force One (AF1). This shoe belongs to the new AF1 collection for 2008. It is available in Nike1Love.
This Charcol / Zest AF1 will be officially launched in a few days’ time, in Jan. 2008. It has a charcoal black shoe upper and a zest sole. It imitates the iconic Air Max 95 by using similar colors and looks.
The toe box has perforations. The yellow mid-sole is a very good color as it forms a striking combination with the shoe’s color. I like the grey accents in the Nike swoosh and shoe laces. There are line markers sewn into the shoe upper to show the different panels of the shoe. This is a feature of design that creates the interesting boundaries of the different panels.
The tongue is in bright yellow. It has a ring that the shoe lace can thread through. This is quite a surprise because in the grey shoe laces, this yellow ring / band suddenly pops up for the shoe lace to pass through.
The grey Nike swoosh has yellow thread machined along its outline to accentuate the outline. The heel has a transparent patch where the air cushion is embedded. This is part of the well planned design to show the uniqueness of the Nike shoe.
