Nike Air Force 1 HTM - Black & Brown Fragment 2008

Nike Air Force 1 HTM - Black & Brown Fragment 2008
The Nike Air Force 1 HTM stands for its project with Hiroshi Fujiwara, Tinker Hatfield and Mark Parker. The shoes are made from crocodile leather and cost $880 for each pair. You can buy them at this denimandsole website.

The toe box has leather arranged on a horizontal way. The tread can be seen running in a neat horizontal row. At the sides of the toe box, the leather has been fitted to run at a sloping angle and this goes all the way until the end of the shoe lace section. The section near the side of the heel has vertical patterns of the leather‘s scales. At the side of the heel are two small signs which are the Fragment logos.

The Nike swoosh is also in crocodile leather and its presence is visible because the leather chosen has a different grain from the rest of the shoe. The sole is colored in the same color as the shoe upper. The outsole has a dense tread pattern made up of tiny grains. The white shoe lace complements the white midsole.

I like the brown colorway more than the black one because the grains on the leather are more visible and they are beautiful.
