Nike air force 1 year of the horse 2002 OG “Fresh Mint” Coming This Summer

Although most of the country is currently battling the coldest throes of winter — and facing the bleak prospect of chilly winds and single-digit temperatures for several more weeks — there’s plenty of reasons to be optimistic. Although it may not seem like it now, spring/summer is coming, and with a change of time comes plenty of fresh new kicks. Like the first blooms of the vernal season, Nike’s spring lifestyle offerings chart gradually begun to surface — and the latest pair to appear is this “Fresh Mint” air force 1 year of the horse 2002. Although you could certainly be forgiven for mis-identifying this colorway as a OG “Neon” at a brief glance due to the gradient grey side panels, white mesh detailing, and black midsole, the difference here is in the details: soft mint green accents are featured prominently on the branding, throat, and Air Max bubble, providing an extra-crisp style. Although obviously not as historic as the aforementioned “Neon,” they’ve got a little history as well, releasing in a very similar colorway circa 2009. These minty-fresh Nike shoes will release May 10th for $160 on Nike.com and at select Swoosh Brand stockists, so grab a look at a full set of images below, and keep your mind on the warmer days ahead while you wait.
