Louis Vuitton and Nike teamed up to release the most luxurious Air Force 1 ever.
The original idea for the collection calls back to Abloh’s SS22 for Louis Vuitton, when he recreated 47 bespoke versions of the shoe featuring a selection of materials like leather, crocodile, faux fur, PVC and more. The shoes went on to be auctioned by Louis Vuitton.
The collaboration marked the first time an Air Force 1 had been manufactured outside a Nike factory. At the French fashion house’s Fiesso d’Artico factory, craftspeople cut patterns and assembled the shoes by hand, creating a sneaker defined by unsurpassed quality.
