ORIGINS
Breaking down the barriers between different types of shoes since 1982, the one that was originally a basketball model got its name from the American presidential plane, Air Force One. It was the first basketball shoe to integrate a Nike Air unit, a revolution for players such as Moses Malone and Charles Barkley which quickly gained incredible success all over the world, from parquet floors to street courts to Hip hop universe. Today, the Nike Air Force 1 remains true to its roots thanks to a flexible and dynamic cushioning and an extremely thick midsole, even if the Nike Air technology is discreet in view of the legendary status of this model.
