Nike Air Force 1 Shadow - Retro Chic for Ladies

There aren't many sneakers that are exclusive to women, with the re-release of the Air Force 1 there is an exclusive Shadow line just for women. The design is based on the classic Nike Air Force 1, but cleverly brought into the modern era.

A success story since 1982

The original technology of the Air Force 1 dates back to 1979 when Nike first introduced Air technology to the market with the Tailwind. This is not a sole filled with air, as was initially often wrongly assumed, but a special gas mixture consisting mainly of noble gases.

With Air technology, the load can be reduced, and after the technology proved itself in the first model and was also popular with athletes, the technology was integrated into the Air Force 1 in 1982. However, just two years later, Nike discontinued the Air Force 1, which did not go down well with customers, who appreciated the shoe.

Finally, several distributors of athletic footwear, faced with ongoing requests, were able to persuade Nike to reissue the shoe. The fan base of the Nike Air Force 1 rose steadily and was not only in the sporting field, but for example, various artists of the hip-hop genre wore this model and also contributed to its notoriety.

The Air Force 1 is one of Nike's most popular and therefore most profitable models. Not without reason, this model is reissued again and again in one variant or another.

A few years ago, with the Nike Air Force 1 Shadow, an exclusive reissue of the popular classic was made just for women. The sporty design and of course the comfortable Air technology were retained, but at the same time the model was given a feminine touch.

The material

The Nike Air Force 1 Shadow has an upper made of high-quality natural leather. In between, elements of synthetic are integrated again and again, which are mainly aimed at improving the look.

The Nike Air Force 1 Shadow has an enlarged, slightly exaggerated sole. In it, as always, you'll find the tried-and-true Air technology. The sole itself is made of foam in the middle part and is rounded off with a rubber sole. This gives the shoe a good grip and doesn't wear out as quickly. The Air technology makes it feel like you are literally walking on air. Of course, this is again the proven inert gas mixture, which was integrated into the sole.

The design

The enlarged sole is the recognizable feature of the Nike Air Force 1. The chunky style is especially popular in urban areas, where the Nike Air Force 1 Shadow is often worn as a comfortable casual shoe.

The height on the Nike Air Force 1 Shadow is low. This wearing option is often preferred by women, because it conjures up a nice slim leg and the shoe is not too dominant, but only emphasizes the outfit.

Typical for this model is also the layered look. This includes, for example, the two eyelet lasts, which of course also promote a good fit of the shoe. This can still be optimized with the two mudguards, for example, if you wear the Air Force 1 during sports.

In the back, there are still two lugs and of course, the Nike Air Force 1 may not be missing the classic Swoosh design, for which Nike is known. If you look closely at the Nike Air Force Shadow, you can see that the logo on the outside actually looks like it has a shadow due to the layered look.

The colorways

The most popular colorway of the Air Force 1 is still the all-white shoe. The advantage of this model is that it is so versatile to combine. You can wear it with jeans in different designs and colors, or with a simple short dress as a sporty component.

Since the Nike Air Force 1 Shadow is specifically a shoe for women, attention was also paid to a feminine design in the choice of colors. For example, the shoe is available in a delicate pink or in a mixture with different pastel shades.

Whoever is looking for somewhat stronger colors will also find what they are looking for in the Nike Air Force 1 Shadow. Of course, the shoe is also available in a pure black. In this variant, it is a popular everyday shoe that is worn frequently and dirt is not so quickly visible on it.

The Nike Air Force 1 Shadow also shows up in white with bold red or blue applications. Who really wants it a little more colorful, can also choose the color variant with a yellow sole. They colored accentuation of the sole looks more sporty and in addition, a casual leisure outfit can also be combined very well.

In addition to the pure white color variant, which looks very elegant, there is the Nike Air Force 1 Shadow also in a light gray. The color also does not seem obtrusive, which means that the shoe can also be combined with different outfits and worn on different occasions. In subtle color variations, the Air Force 1 Shadow is even suitable for the office.
