Nike’s Wild Floral Air Force 1 Blooms in Three Dimensions

Nike brought an eye-catching three dimensional design to its popular Air Force 1 sneaker style.

The brand redesigned its low-top AF1 LV8 sneaker with boldness in mind: This (sadly) kids-only Nike shoe features a black base covering the uppers with illustrative flowers painted over top. The white and mint green florals make a splash on the shoes’ neutral base.

While the latest AF1 design commands attention, the real stars of Nike’s little floral show are the flower-shaped embellishments that literally pop off the sneaker.

White 3D petals are attached along the AF1’s toe box and outer heels, bringing more interest to the shoe and adding a cool, unexpected, and playful design to one of the brand’s most versatile footwear styles.

Clean white Swooshes add a final detail to the outer sides of the shoe, while contrasting black laces tie the shoe together. A chunky white Air sole base with black stitching and a brown gum sole grounds the sneaker.

The basics of Nike’s timeless AF1 are intact, using durable leather construction and sturdy stitching that you know and love.

This tiny Nike AF1 shoe joins the latest trend of sporty sneaker styles adding a dainty floral design to their otherwise ordinary (and sometimes technical) uppers.

Brands like Salomon and ASICS have already tapped into the look, using hand-stitched appliques and 3D motifs.

Though the floral shoe is currently only available in kid sizes, I wouldn’t be mad if Nike dropped the design in a full size range. Until that day comes, grab the shoes now for $79 on Nike’s website.
