Nike’s Fancy Bronze Air Force 1 Is LV-Coded

Written by Morgan Smith in Sneakers

Nike has cooked up a gleaming Air Force 1 Low sneaker for NBA All-Star Weekend, and it's quite luxury-brand-coded. Wink wink.

The newest Air Force 1, dubbed "LA All-Star," features glossy bronze uppers stamped with an all-over diamond pattern and LA graphics. These details almost instantly bring back memories of Louis Vuitton's 2022 collaboration.

Louis Vuitton, then headed by the late Virgil Abloh, put its own spin on Nike's ultra-classic Air Force 1. The label created an entire collection of luxurious Forces, including pairs wrapped in the brand's famed Damier checkerboard print and gold Forces stamped with the brand's iconic monogram.

Both Nike sneakers look good. And whereas the LV sneakers costed almost $3,000 and fetched thousands more on the resale market, the "LA All-Star" pairs will retail for around $160 per sneaker, according to sneaker leakers.

That's a good deal on an LV-style sneaker.

The Air Force 1 Low "LA All-Star" sneakers are expected to drop right in the midst of All-Star Weekend, releasing on Nike's website on February 13.
