Before we turn our calendars to 2025, previews of various Nike sneakers for Valentine’s Day celebrations have hit the net. The sportswear giant’s plans include kids and adult versions of the AF1 and Cortez, an Air Jordan 1 Low, Nike Ja 2, Jordan 3, and . Adding yet another colorway of Bruce Kilgore’s AF1, Nike has given the kids a second exclusive colorway to commemorate Cupid’s holiday.
Filled to the brim with colors and motifs that evoke a sense of love, the sneaker combines white, pink, and red hues alongside heart-filled details. The red leather toebox’s usual circular perforations get a heart-shaped makeover, while the red midfoot panel features hearts embossed. Just above this panel sits a pink Swoosh, working back to the pink heel tab that contains red Nike Air branding embroidered.
Along the mudguard, eyestays, and heel overlay sits a white leather that allows the aforementioned hits of red and pink to shine, as well as the red lace set and tongue. More heart graphics are applied to the woven tongue label and insole, the latter featuring various 8-bit candy heart designs that contain phrases like “Love is in the Air,” “Perfect Pair,” and “Solemates.” The final heart detail comes attached to the hang tag, with two key chains splitting a heart that, when combined, spells out “Perfect Pair.” Finishing the sneaker is the white midsole and red outsole.
The Nike Air Force 1 Low Valentine's Day Perfect Pair GS will release on January 23, 2025, through Nike and select retailers online and in-store. Available in GS sizing, the retail price is set at $100. Download the Sole Retriever mobile app to stay updated on the latest releases, raffles, news, and more in the sneaker and streetwear world.
