Nike Air Force 1 LV8

These AF1 LV8s are built upon a neutral background with flashes of bright colors and intriguing details. The outsole is made of a translucent rubber with an off-white, almost beige tone. Its glassy appearance continues all the way around the edge, moving through its star-shaped grip nodules and the lugs along its sides. Atop this sits a white midsole with Air lettering in the lateral heel to highlight the use of soft cushioning through its center.

Smooth white panels of synthetic leather create pristine lines across the upper, from the forefoot mudguard through the perforated toe box to the eyestay and rear overlay. Everything is held together with intricate lines of stitching, some of which have been doubled up in precise parallel bands. In between the forefoot and rear overlays, the midfoot panels come in an off-white tone called Phantom, each one having a pair of perforations for added breathability. Stretching across the midfoot on each flank is a Mint Foam swoosh that features an appealing paisley graphic in white. Hidden within its complex patterns are a few subtle Nike swooshes.

At the back of the shoe, the heel panel also has paisley decorations on a Mint Foam background, this time including Nike lettering as part of its captivating design. Embroidered into the heel is Nike Air text in white that appears to be slightly raised above its surface, giving it a pronounced appearance. Over the top of the foot, a silver dubrae with a chunky swoosh debossed into it secures the laces in place. Further up, the tongue has a sandy yellow trim alongside a luminous multi-colored patch with Mint Foam Nike lettering printed over it. Meanwhile, the entire internal surface of the sneaker is made of a flexible white mesh, with bold yellow Nike Air branding adorning the insole to finish things off.
