Even Nike's Got Its Own "Chanel" Sneakers
Nike's got its own "Chanel" Air Force 1 Lows.
The new sneakers aren't an official Chanel x Nike collaboration. They're actually called the "Bouclé" Forces, designed with, well, distressed bouclé uppers and fuzzy yarn-like shoelaces.
Oh, and it also has a beaded Swoosh.
The vintage-style design awakens memories of Chanel's iconic graffiti messenger bag (streetwear star Lil Yachty has one).
The Spring 2015 shoulder bag inspired a pair of sold-out Vans sneakers, which released this fall. Now, it seems to have landed on the moodboard for Nike's latest "Bouclé" Air Force 1.
Nike has previously released Air Force 1 collabs with luxury labels like Tiffany and Louis Vuitton, resulting in some of the most coveted and luxurious Forces ever.
And with the way Chanel's new creative director, Matthieu Blazy, is out here wearing Nikes during runway shows, who knows? Maybe a Chanel x Nike sneaker isn't far off, after all.
Wishful thinking, of course.
Until then, we have these nice Chanel-style "Bouclé" Air Force 1s, which are scheduled to release on December 19 on Nike's SNKRS app for $120.
