Nike Enlist J Rick to Unveil the Air Force 1 WTR GTX - Register Now on UrlfreezeShops Launches

Launching their new line, "THE10TH", earlier this year, Nike's modus operandi was to update classic silhouettes with a utilitarian edge and a futuristic set of ideals. Taking aim at the iconic Air Force 1 this time round, UrlfreezeShops and Beaverton's finest team up with musician and producer J Rick to showcase the esoteric sneaker with this exclusive editorial.

Releasing his debut EP, "No Retreat No Surrender", last month, the North London-based artist has carved his own lane following a slew of collaborations with close friend Octavian. Modelling the Air Force 1 WTR GTX, J Rick's distinctive approach to production and personal style reflects the forward-thinking tact championed by this new interpretation of a classic sneaker model.

Constructed with a combination of smooth leather uppers and a ripstop toggle sock closure, this GORE-TEX lined sneaker truly embodies THE10TH's functional capabilities. Ready to tackle anything that Mother Nature could throw at you, the Air Force 1 WTR GTX is weatherproof for premium protection come rain or shine. Primed to keep your feet warm and dry through torrential rain, sleet or heavy snowfall, the combination of GORE-TEX and the Air Force 1's street-ready sensibility provides the perfect style for seasonal wear that bridges the gap between practicality and aesthetics.

Dressed in a snow-ready phantom, black and clear colourway, the first pair of the duo offers a unique take on the Air Force 1's signature all-white hue. Icy with a blue-grey swoosh to the sidewall, the sneaker's ripstop panels add further tonal detailing to this winterised model. Cast in a stealthy all-black, the second pair ensure that your appetite for tactical footwear will surely be sated, complete with full weatherproofing.

The Nike Air Force 1 WTR GTX sneakers are available for registration online now via UrlfreezeShops Launches.
