The Nike Air Force II High – White Navy is a stern beauty. The colors, and the form all speak of a calm yet committed approach to perfection in sneaker design, symbolizing the controlled power of the hero who will not fail to reach new heights with every feat that he undertakes, but is humble and modest in spite of his success.

The design is inspirational with its balanced concept, and the flawless execution that brings the concept to life. Inspiration can be found in unlikely places, as we all know, and surely the Air Force II High derives its meaning from the vast expenses of the sea which reminds us of the countless battles fought and lost there. The champions of the navy are just as inspirational as the champions of the basketball court, and this idea is personified in the spectacular concept behind this pair.
