Loopwheeler, a veteran Nike collaborator and master of contemporary fashion and streetwear, brings its distinct style and affinity for fleece to the iconic Force 1, the latest in a long line of vintage silhouettes Loopwheeler has targeted. This time, however, the brand forgoes the iconic AF1 in favor of its modernized offspring. The result is two striking colorways of the Loopwheeler x Nike Lunar Force 1.
Sleek, sporty heathered fleece comprises much of each shoe’s upper, fashionably offset by tonal leather paneling, and set atop a light Lunarlon midsole that lends the shoes a certain vintage athletic appearance. Add to that the plush woolly liner, and the shoe has all the earmarks of a classic PE piece. In the best way imaginable.
No word yet on a release date, nor how available the shoe will be, but a NikeLab launch seems a solid bet. Stay tuned.
