Nike x Off-White: History of the Sneaker Collaboration - FARFETCH

Product DetailsCreated by designer Virgil Abloh, the Air Jordan 1 x Off-White comes in the classic Chicago colorway. Some of the sneakers' half-finished features include a Swoosh connected to the shoe with visible blue stitching, 'Air' printed on the midsole, and an Off-White zip tie on the collar.

With the Off-White x Chuck 70 ‘White,’ Virgil Abloh places an emphasis on accessibility and wearability. Consequently, the iconic silhouette is dressed in conventional cotton canvas and finished in a versatile crisp white shade. Virgil even keeps the shoe’s signature and rubber license plate, though the latter is flipped upside down. Additional flourishes include the Off-White’s trademark diagonal stripes on the midsole, printed text on the medial side and a bright orange outsole.

The April 2018 version of Virgil Abloh’s all-white Air VaporMax is mostly unchanged from the original pair from ‘The Ten.’ Stripped of color, the performance runner brings raw materials and unique details to the forefront, including an exposed-foam tongue, translucent Swoosh and Off-White suede eyestay. Printed above the clear VaporMax unit, the quotation ‘AIR’ print on the lateral side takes on an extra meta dimension.

Virgil Abloh presents a relatively straightforward take on Bruce Kilgore’s design with this Off-White x Air Force 1 Low. That isn’t to suggest there aren’t unique details on the reconstructed build: in addition to a mix of ripstop and suede, the upper features taped seams and a white Swoosh attached via zigzag stitching. Exposed foam and misplaced tags appear on the tongue, while ‘LOGO’ inscribed on the heel tab delivers a final meta flourish.
