G-DRAGON, a Korean pop sensation, has committed his life to becoming the spark that causes the "step" that unites us all. This mindset is reflected in the Air Force 1 G-DRAGON, which has a paint layer that wears away to expose an art work inspired by his vision of a society where the distinctions between reality and utopia are blurred. He's beginning with the young of Seoul, Korea, encouraging them to freely develop and discuss ideas. He thinks that by uniting the youth through creation, they can create a culture that would eventually give birth to an artistic paradise.

When it was initially debuted in 1982, the Air Force 1 revolutionised basketball footwear from the court to the runway. Despite being the first basketball sneaker to feature Nike Air, its innovative nature has since been eclipsed by its status as a street classic. Just in time for Halloween, the new special-edition Nike Air Force 1 haunts in a black-on-black design, with a skeleton's foot turning heads across the leather upper and midsole. The surreal—a translucent outsole and "Nike" written in bones on the tongue—joins the AF-1's recognisable elements.

A tan strap held by a gold button adds texture to the heel, and a two-piece sheath with a heavy-gauge gold zipper covers the tongue, with blue canvas on the medial side and black corduroy on the lateral side. The style is completed with a sail midsole with volt green stitching and a gum outsole.

The 1WORLD Pack tapped influencers and major AF1 followers such as music artist Questlove and NBA great Rasheed Wallace to generate mega-hits that have gained grail status in today's collector market. CLOT's interpretation of the silhouette is possibly the greatest of the entire series, with the model dressed in a red silky top that could be worn down to expose a black and gold layer underneath.

However, unlike the first two, these CLOT Air Force 1s in blue have a crowd-pleasing gum outsole.

When it first debuted as a breakthrough performance shoe, the Air Force 1 rapidly cemented its position in sneaker culture. To this day, the original white-on-white rendition is the ideal canvas for urban expression, as well as a defining emblem of New York and beyond. The Nike Air Force 1 takes this landmark to a whole new level with a completely minimalist style that preserves the obvious feel of the white-on-white original.
