About the Nike Air Force 1 Shell (Women's)

Where the black version of the Shell reads as technical, this one reads as cold-weather clothing. Desert Sand is a pale tan and Atmosphere Grey is a soft light gray, and together they give the shoe the palette of a windbreaker rather than a sneaker.

The hardware is what the model is built around. Instead of the Air Force 1's usual laces and ankle strap, the upper closes with toggle cinches, one at the collar and one at the heel, pulled tight and locked in place. The synthetic panel they sit on is coated to repel water, and the sockliner underneath is lined in fleece, both of which point at winter use rather than styling. Under all of it the sole is standard, a rubber cupsole with an encapsulated Air unit at the heel, which is the only part of the shoe that would look familiar to someone who first saw the model in 1982. Retail was $150.
