A volt outsole adds even more personality. This is the only image we have so far, but it appears that “Send Help” has been embroidered on the heel. Stay tuned for an update on these.

All-white is easily the most popular choice for the Air Force 1, so it should only seem obvious for Nike to create an all-white version of the sneaker’s latest creation, the Nike Lunar Force. Nicknamed “White Ice”, this pair has been whited-out from top to bottom, with the exception of a super clean icy white sole. The finished product is a sneaker that resembles the classic all-white AF1s that we all know and love, but with today’s advanced Lunarlon technology. This colorway will release on Saturday, March 30.
