Two hundred dollars is roughly double what an Air Force 1 Low cost at the time, and that number is the first thing worth explaining about this pair. Nike's women's Upstep line sat at the top of the range: a taller midsole platform under the standard silhouette, upgraded materials on the upper, and small production runs rather than a shelf item.
The color is almost absent. Palest Purple is a lilac so washed out that indoors it can pass for off white, and it runs across the entire upper and the raised midsole with only a strip of white at the sole edge to separate them. Against a shoe that is usually sold in strong single colors, the effect is deliberately quiet. The height comes from the Upstep tooling, which stacks the foam under the same shape rather than reshaping the shoe. Everything above the midsole is the 1982 outline: perforated toe, stitched Swoosh, padded collar and the lace medallion at the throat.
