Air Force 1 women's and unisex

What is the Air Force 1?

The Air Force 1 is a Nike sneaker that started as a basketball shoe and has now become a lifestyle model worn daily by women and in a unisex version. Its thick sole, leather or fabric panel, and high tongue make it easily recognisable, whether you choose it in classic white or in more elaborate colours.

Which version to choose: '07, Mid, LV8 or Flyknit?

The choice mostly depends on the height of the upper and the material you want.

• The Air Force 1 '07 is the classic low-cut version, made of leather, designed for everyday use.
• The Air Force 1 LV8 takes the same base with different materials and finishes, often more elaborate.
• The Air Force 1 Flyknit replaces part of the leather with a woven upper, making it softer and lighter on the foot.
• The Air Force 1 Premium and the Air Force 1 '07 Next Nature offer variations in materials and finishes around the same silhouette.

If you're looking for a high-top pair, know that the collection also includes the Air Force 1 in a Mid version, which covers the ankle more while keeping the same base.

What materials and colours can you find on the Air Force 1?

The selection includes several materials, from full leather for a structured look to Flyknit fabric for a softer use. In terms of colours, white remains the most versatile base, but you will also find versions with coloured panels or prints, which are more visually striking.

How to wear the Air Force 1 every day

The Air Force 1 fits well under straight jeans as well as under a skirt or shorts, thanks to its fairly neutral silhouette. In the low version, it is suitable for a classic everyday use; in the Mid version, it provides extra support to the ankle, useful for longer days or more dressed-up outfits.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the Air Force 1 and the Air Force 1 Mid?

The main difference is the height of the upper: the low version stops below the ankle, while the Mid version covers it more. The sole and the overall spirit of the model remain the same.

Is the Air Force 1 a sports shoe or a lifestyle sneaker?

Today, the Air Force 1 is primarily worn as an everyday sneaker, outside of any sports practice. Its thick sole and leather upper make it comfortable for walking, but it is not designed for training.

How to know what size to get in women's Air Force 1?

The sizing can vary slightly depending on the material: full leather versions generally fit standard, while Flyknit versions, which are softer, may feel a bit looser. If you're unsure between two sizes, it's advisable to compare with a pair you already wear at home.

Can the Air Force 1 be worn with a dress or just with jeans?

The fairly neutral silhouette of the Air Force 1 allows it to be worn with a dress, skirt, shorts, or jeans, depending on the desired use. More muted colours, like white, pair easily with most outfits.

Is there a difference in maintenance between leather and Flyknit?

Leather is generally cleaned with a damp cloth and withstands repeated friction better. Flyknit, being woven fabric, requires gentler care because the material is more sensitive to stains and abrasion.
