NOCTA & Nike Crack Open a Glass of Fresh, Citrus-Flavored AF1s (EXCLUSIVE)
Drake and Matte Babel's NOCTA and Nike are going out with a bang for 2024, unleashing new Loverboy Nike Air Force 1 Low sneakers and matching Nike Tech Fleece sweatsuits.
But first, let me direct your attention away from Compton and Toronto (IYKYK) and towards Miami. NOCTA and Nike touched down in the tropical Florida city for Art Basel, where they erected a bodega store just for the new collection.
Even Latto was there. The musician starred in NOCTA's commercial promoting Big Mama's Mini Market as a spot that has "everything you need." It's a perfect match-up, really, especially for Latto, who has a hit song called "Big Mama."
At Big Mama's Mini Market, the name of NOCTA's temporary bodega, fans had the opportunity to shop NOCTA-branded snacks and drinks and get their nails done by luxury nail artist Dallas Jones. Of course, guests also got first dibs on the new Forces and Tech Fleece suits.
NOCTA x Nike preserves the design of their original Air Force 1 Low "Love You Forever" collaboration, down to the actual "Love You Forever" message on the heel. Indeed, fans can still count on the simple blend of classic AF1 energy with Drake's Certified Loverboy details and NOCTA branding.
This time, however, the Air Force 1 Lows arrive in new spring-worthy pastel colorways, including Citron Tint, Palest Purple, and Pink Foam. Turns out the rumors were true!
The NOCTA x Nike collaboration also features new Tech Fleece pieces — ultra-cozy hoodies, sweatpants, and pullover sweatshirts — in palest purple, citron tint, and ice peach flavors.
Again, NOCTA made its collection first available to Miami fans. But don't sweat (that's what the Tech Fleece is for). The NOCTA x Nike sneakers and sweatsuits will be coming to NOCTA's website on December 10.
