Nike Air Force 1 Low Louis Vuitton Monogram Brown Damier Azur – The Nike Air Force 1, celebrating its 40th year, was designed in 1982 and is one of the most successful iconic shoes ever created. For the Louis Vuitton Men’s Spring-Summer 2022 show, Virgil Abloh collaborated with Nike to design 47 pairs of bespoke Air Force 1s, fusing classic sneaker codes with Louis Vuitton insignia and materials in homage to hip-hop culture that formed him.
The sneakers were made with materials used in Abloh’s Louis Vuitton men’s collections and were paired with his creative markings, which echo the written graphics Abloh often used in his work. The individual models designed for the show were made by Louis Vuitton in its shoe factory in Fiesso d’artigianato, Italy.
The Nike Air Force 1 Low Louis Vuitton Monogram Brown Damier Azur are entirely made of leather, embellished with Louis Vuitton’s emblematic Monogram and Damier motifs with natural cowhide profiles. Each pair is sold with a Louis Vuitton pilot case, also from the Louis Vuitton Spring-Summer 2022 collection, which has been reinterpreted from the Maison’s archive in an iconic orange colorway and crafted from Monogram Taurillon leather. The case features Louis Vuitton’s classic S-lock closure with white metal hardware and includes a Nike Swoosh luggage tag. The case adapts to every shoe size, based on an internal cushioning system – also created and sold exclusively for this sneaker.
This special edition was auctioned for a total of 200 pairs where proceeds from the sale by Louis Vuitton* will benefit the Virgil Abloh ™ “Post-Modern” Scholarship Fund, which in collaboration with the Fashion Scholarship Fund, supports the education of academically promising students of Black, African American, or African descent.
