Lil Yachty Gives Close Look at a Black Red Concrete Boys Nike Air Force 1 Low in His Latest Music Video
Published
Lil Yachty achieved what many can only dream of. A successful rap career. His music label, Concrete Boys. And multiple collaborations with Nike. The Atlanta-born rapper first teased his Nike Air Force 1 in 2023, revealing what was then thought to be a friends-and-family colorway. Fast forward to 2025, and Yachty has been blessed to have released two AF1s, one in White Navy and another in a Y2K-Bape-esque Lucky Green colorway, and a slew of PE versions of his Concrete Boys AF1.
While he revealed a set of these at Coachella in 2024, this year, he’s been giving us better looks at a few of these pairs. Just last month, he rocked a black/purple Concrete Boys AF1 at Summer Smash, and today, he gave us an up-close look at the Black-Red color scheme first seen last year in the music video for his new song “i need meds.”
The pair follows the colorblocking of the aforementioned purple pair, reserving the accenting shade for the “It’s Us” tongue tag, the mesh sockliner, the Concrete Boys 3D logo on the lateral heel, and the Concrete Boys logo on the heel tab. The rest of the sneaker comes coated in black, sans the rubber outsole, which comes in red.
Outside of his Air Force 1 collabs, Yachty has become a close friend of Nike as he’s helped give an early look at multiple releases from the brand. These include the recent Levi’s x Nike Air Max 95 Collection and multiple CPFM x Nike releases. He was even given a player-exclusive colorway of the Nike NOCTA Glide in a Kentucky Wildcats colorway back in 2023.
As of this writing, there is no confirmed release information for this Black Red colorway of Yachty’s Nike Air Force 1 Low. Download the Sole Retriever mobile app to stay updated on the latest releases, raffles, news, and more in the sneaker and streetwear world.
