The Nike Air Force 1: Coveted and desired, for playing basketball on the streets and for business meetings in executive suites, to break necks and to protect ankles. Arguably one of the most influential and most popular sneakers ever created. Created by legendary designer Bruce Kilgore, the Nike Air Force 1 made it's way into sneaker history in 1982.
Originally, the Nike Air Force 1 was only offered in two silhouettes: the more sought after Nike Air Force 1 Hi and the now more common Nike Air Force 1 Low. The Nike Air Force 1, named after the United States personal Presidential Plane "Air Force One", offered some groundbreaking design details. To increase longevity of the shoe, no expense was saved in the development of the Nike Air Force 1.
The Nike Air Force 1 sported a revolutionary ½ inch thick insole, new rubber chemistry was researched, a three-plate mold to reinforce the upper material was used and the proprioceptus belt on the ankle for support. And who can forget the "AIR" scribed on the mid-sole? That's right! AIR in a Nike basketball shoe. Unlike it's predecessors, (Nike Blazer, Nike Bruin, Nike All Court) the Nike Air Force 1 had AIR not only in the name of the shoe, but in the insole; revolutionary to the sneaker world forever.
