The late 2010s “hypebeast” era of sneakers was defined by multiple collaborations, though the partnership with Virgil Abloh’s Off-White and Nike is the clear-cut leader here. The frequency of Off-White x Nike projects has slowed significantly, with 2024 featuring zero releases from the duo. However, Virgil Abloh's estate will continue its partnership with Nike by releasing a new Air Force 1 Low colorway.
Pictured below is a sample of the Off-White x Nike Air Force 1 Low Sesame, which was previewed alongside a ton of Off-White x Nike and Louis Vuitton x Nike Air Force 1 designs at the Virgil Abloh: The Code c/o Architecture exhibit in Miami during Art Basel 2022. Sole Retriever attended this exhibit, and at the time, it was unknown whether or not this particular colorway of the Off-White x Nike AF1 was releasing.
