Futura is Giving Away Two Pairs of His Friends and Family FLOM Air Force 1 Collab

Futura 2000 has been a force in the culture for decades. Since the days of New York City’s original train bombers and subway watchers, the graffiti legend has evolved into the perfect blend of fine art and pop recognition, adding his alien characters and color-splashed style to everything from canvas and skateboards to endless collabs with the likes of Louis Vuitton and Hot Wheels.

Out of all his work, the Futura pieces that stand out the most in culture, beyond the lasting photos of MTA cars covered in his art, of course, are his Nike collabs, including the grail-status Nike SB Dunk High FLOM (For Love Or Money) from 2004. Now, to commemorate his legacy and history with the brand, Nike is lacing Futura with a 70-pair, friends and family exclusive remake of the FLOM as an Air Force 1 Low, complete with a satin pink sock liner.

The Nike Air Force 1 FLOM won’t be released to the public, but Futura is a generous man, and the graffiti legend isn’t keeping all 70 pairs for himself. In a new Instagram post, Futura told fans that two numbered Air Force 1 pairs would be given away to lucky fans. “I hope this will be an XMAS present that was never imagined, or even anticipated,” Futura wrote.

Futura hasn’t announced the exact details of the giveaway yet, but told fans to stay tuned to his social media for more info soon. We’ll keep you posted when any new giveaway links or details are announced, so make sure to download the Sole Retriever mobile app.
