From his work founding BAPE to Human Made and his own solo work under his given name, Japanese designer and streetwear legend NIGO has been working with Nike for over a year to bring new life to the Air Force 3, an often-forgotten sequel silhouette to the legendary Air Force 1. Now, NIGO and Nike are wrapping things up, finishing their collab with a graduation of sorts on a collegiate-themed AF3 pack.

We first got a look at the NIGO x Nike Air Force 3 College Pack last month, but we now have a firm release date for the Georgetown and University of Oregon-inspired colorways clad in premium Pendleton wool, not to mention details about the end of the longtime collab. Bringing the collection to a close, the shoes will be released alongside matching letterman jackets designed to add the patches that came with every pair of NIGO AF3 throughout the collection.

“The culminating expression of the Nike x NIGO Air Force 3 takes on a collegiate homecoming theme, featuring Pendleton wool and a classic color palette that merges NIGO’s passion for vintage Americana and Nike’s historic connection to collegiate sport,” Nike detailed.

The NIGO x Nike Air Force 3 College Pack will be released January 31 through Human Made followed by a wider release of the Midnight Navy colorway February 6 through Nike and select retailers in-store and online.
