In 2022, 40 years since the Air Force 1 was introduced, a culmination of the rich history of the silhouette was realized with the introduction of the Louis Vuitton x Nike “Air Force 1” by Virgil Abloh. Released posthumously, Alboh’s work seamlessly connected the decades of prominence of Nike’s famed sneaker. In total, Virgil Abloh designed 47 bespoke pairs of the Nike “Air Force 1” for the Louis Vuitton Spring-Summer 2022 show in collaboration with Nike.

The Louis Vuitton x Air Force 1 Low ‘White Comet Red’ is drawn from a bespoke AF1 collection that marked one of Virgil Abloh’s final projects with the historical fashion house. Assembled in Louis Vuitton’s production facility in Fiesso d’Artico, Italy, this pair showcases a tonal Monogram print throughout the upper, built with white calf leather and contrasting trompe-l’oeil canvas overlays in a bold crimson finish.

The Louis Vuitton Nike Air Force 1 Low by Virgil Abloh White expresses the late Abloh’s spin on Nike’s ever-popular Air Force 1 Low basketball shoe. Abloh reinvents the White-on-White color story in luxe LV-stamped leather. Louis Vuitton branding in gold appears throughout. Abloh nods to his Off-White clothing brand, with a small hangtag below the Swoosh and an additional 'AIR' printed next to Nike’s AIR on the midsole.
