Nike and Samuel Ross present the highly-anticipated AF1 A Cold Wall*

A release date for the much-hyped shoe has been confirmed

Initially debuted during the brand's inaugural London Fashion Week presentation in January this year, the AF1 A Cold Wall* offers a contemporary take on the much-loved Air Force silhouette, which Ross sees as a benchmark shoe for London's streetwear scene during the early 2000s.

The much-hyped silhouette perfectly blends A Cold Walls* influence of contemporary urban life, as well as Ross' love of industrial design, which has resulted in a sleek, dissected version of the AF1 High, which features subtle colour shifts, cut out Nike branding (leaving just its stitching), striped back eyelets and ACW detailing.

When explaining the collection founder and designer Samuel Ross said: “Growing up with the culture, it wasn't something I was very conscious of but it was a feature of it: You always had the Nike tracksuit with the Air Force 1”.

The Nike AF1 A Cold Wall* will be available from October 21 exclusively at the A Cold Wall* pop-up, that will be announced via the brand's Instagram later this week.
