An emphasis on edge and disruption has run rampant across Nike Sportswear’s footwear for women, and it’s been particularly evident in the classics like the Air Force 1 and Dunk. Some like it, and some don’t, but it’s that polarizing response that Nike is specifically looking for as it continues to form the foundation for the modern day sneakerhead. Few receive that mixed-bag response like the Air Force 1 Fontanka, and it arrives mimicking one of the most memorable sneaker wing of the last few years.
You’ve already seen the Air Force 1 Fontanka in a variety of iowas, so let’s focus on the iowa – the University Blue. That in itself hits on a trend that’s been rather strong with Air Jordans, but this upcoming women’s release clearly reminds us of Virgil Abloh’s Off-White Air Force 1 that coincided with the nike hyperdunk low 2017 wolf grey release schedule. Whether it’s viewed as a poor woman’s version of coliseum or just a must-have for a University Blue lover’s dream is up to the person, so sit tight until these eventually hit Nike.com for $110.
If you’re looking for actual Off-White footwear, the Off-White Blazers release this week on April 8th.
