Fat Joe holds a venerable position in hip-hop and sneaker culture. Beyond his chart-topping hits, the Terror Squad frontman has showcased a deep love for sneakers, often seen flexing rare kicks and exclusive pairs. More often than not, this is with his favorite, the Nike Air Force 1 Low. While many fans tasted this passion with the Terror Squad Nike Air Force 1 Low drop in 2023, Fat Joe had more in store. At the BET Hip Hop Awards, all eyes were on his feet as he revealed a Red colorway from the collaboration, exclusively for friends and family.
The new iteration follows a design pattern reminiscent of the Black White rendition that hit retail. The dominating black overlays are swapped out for luxurious red leather, infusing the silhouette with an undeniable vibrancy. The sneaker sports a prominent "TS" embroidery on the lateral heel, a testimony to the Terror Squad legacy.
Another notable detail is the "JC" marking on the heel tab, a tribute to Fat Joe's nickname, "Joey Crack," and his birth name, Joseph Cartagena. The shoe rests on a crisp white midsole adorned with red accent stitching and the iconic Air branding, all atop a vivid red rubber outsole.
Originally expected to be a friends and family pair, the Terror Squad x Nike Air Force 1 Low White University Red will release in Fall 2025 through Nike and select retailers online and in-store. Available in men's sizing, the retail price is $150.
