The Nike Air Force 1 is the most popular sneaker on StockX. While that may come as a surprise to some, the iconic Nike silhouette is easily one of the most recognizable sneakers on the planet. The classic white colourway is the best selling of all, but the brand’s many collaborative iterations of the shoe are also very popular. And whether it be a localized collaboration with Kith or a metallic silver Swoosh from Off-White, there are seemingly endless options of Air Force 1s to choose from. With the holiday shopping season in full swing, we’ve narrowed down the StockX Nike AF1 catalogue to some of our favourites so that you can come away with an uncontested win.
Nike Air Force 1 Low Kith Hawaii
The Kith empire is rapidly expanding with what seems like the intention of world domination. Over the last three years, Kith has opened multiple stores outside the continental United States, occupying retail space in places like France, Japan, and, most recently, Hawaii. With each of these store openings, Kith has released a very limited Nike Air Foce 1 in colours that reference the location. The Nike Air Force 1 Low Kith Hawaii was released in August of this year, and like its predecessors features vintage beige sole and Kith logo embossed quarter panels. While most of the sneaker is made from an all-white leather upper, the sneaker features slight hits of blue coming off the velvet lining, mini-toe swoosh, and tongue. Most notably, this version of the Nike AF1 features a Kith logo on the tongue that is laid over a contrasting green image of the Hawaiian Islands, paying homage to one of the brand’s new homes. Kith’s Hawaii-inspired Air Force 1 was released in-store only and in extremely limited quantities, making it a major hit, especially with the holidays on the horizon.
Nike Air Force 1 Low Supreme White
Supreme’s minimally edited take on the classic Nike Air Force 1 was originally released in early 2020. The design, which alters the sneaker only by adding a single small Supreme Box Logo to the outer heel of the shoe, was both simple and a massive hit. Since its release in Week 2 of the brand’s Spring/Summer 2020 season, the Supreme Nike Air Force 1 has been restocked on a continuous basis, making it one of the best-selling versions of the sneaker on StockX. If you’re looking to pick up a white AF1 for yourself or a loved one but want to go beyond the traditional white colourway just a tad, this is the model for you.
Nike Air Force 1 Low White ’07
For those looking to get their hands on the OG Nike Air Force 1 in white, we’ve got them in stock on StockX. This particular colour and style is not just the best-selling Nike Air Force 1 on StockX, it is the single best-selling shoe on StockX in the last year. As if the popularity and practicality of this sneaker weren’t enough, the Nike Air Force 1 Low in white is also an incredibly affordable shoe. With an average resale price of under £100F in multiple sizes, this sneaker checks every box you can think of. If the white Air Force 1 is missing from you or a loved one’s closet, place a bid and mark off an easy win this holiday season.
Nike Air Force 1 Low Stüssy Black
Nike and Stüssy’s current collaborative relationship began in the spring of 2020 and has since yielded several highly sought-after sneakers. Among those sneaker releases were two colourways of a Nike Air Force 1 made from a woven hemp-like material. Of the two colours to release, the black pair has been more popular than the fossil pair, which makes sense considering the black Nike AF1 is nearly as iconic as the white. With a fun material twist on the traditional black Air Force 1, the Stüssy version might be the perfect opportunity to broaden the sneaker rotation of yourself or a loved one.
Nike Air Force 1 Low G-Dragon Peaceminusone Para-Noise 2.0
Though “classic” and “traditional” are words often used to describe the Nike Air Force 1, not every collaborator is as subtle as others. This pair of Air Force 1s was released in collaboration with K-pop star G-Dragon and his apparel label. The traditional white design is altered on the surface through scuff marks on the soles and a daisy motif on the back of the left shoe. Below the surface, this sneaker features G-Dragon-designed artwork that becomes visible as the classic white lacquer coating wears off. Rubbing away the coating reveals a graffiti style upper that’s guaranteed to demand a second look from anyone who sees you out in these.
Nike Air Force 1 Low OFF-WHITE University Gold Metallic Silver
Off-White’s been releasing their take on the Air Force 1 since the two parties came together for the first time in 2017 and over the last four years, Off-White and Nike have released seven different colourways of the classic sneaker. The most recent iteration follows in the footsteps of others like it, featuring a reflective silver Swoosh set against the solid-coloured upper of the Air Force 1. The University Gold pair was a surprise release in celebration of Virgil Abloh’s Figures of Speech exhibition, which opened earlier this year at the ICA Boston Museum. This sneaker is a statement, but for fans of the brand it’s also a part of history, making it a must-have for any true fan of Virgil Abloh’s Off-White.
Nike Air Force 1 Low Rose White
This fun take on the original white Nike Air Force 1 was released earlier this year and delivers just a slight alteration and pop of colour. The Nike Air Force 1 Low Rose does nothing to change the upper of the shoe and instead focuses wholly on the sole of the sneaker. The shoe’s traditional AIR lettering on the side of the sole has been turned into a green stem that runs along the outside of the sole until it blossoms into a red rose. If you’re looking for a non-Supreme version of an elevated white AF1, the rose white colourway might be the one for you.
