With a rich heritage both on and off the basketball court, Nike’s Air Force 1 is the perfect combination of hoops and the streets, and it’s appeared in a fresh low-top cut complete with a trifecta of basketball-themed lace locks. We received a first look at this new variety earlier this week, thanks to a men’s Air Force 1 Low that offered similar embellishments and a colorway seemingly inspired by the ’96 NBA All-Star Game. However, with the arrival of this ladies-only makeup, it appears as if the style will be a recurring theme instead of a one-off release. Apart from the white, blue, and black throat badges, these Nike shoes keep it fairly classic with their colorblocking, offering a white leather upper accented by a pink collar/heel counter and a black midfoot Swoosh/heel tab. An alternate branded patch appears on the tongue, while a white midsole and outsole finalize the look. Hoops-loving ladies can scoop these Forces now for $100 USD, so check out a store list below to see what retailers have stock.
