In 2022, 40 years since the Air Force 1 was introduced, a culmination of the rich history of the silhouette was realized with the introduction of the Louis Vuitton x Nike “Air Force 1” by Virgil Abloh. Released posthumously, Abloh’s work seamlessly connected the decades of prominence of Nike’s famed sneaker. In total, Virgil Abloh designed 47 bespoke pairs of the Nike “Air Force 1” for the Louis Vuitton Spring-Summer 2022 show in collaboration with Nike.

Ultra Limited Series / Nike x Louis Vuitton collaboration by Virgil Abloh Originally designed by Nike in 1982, the Louis Vuitton Air Force 1 are the first sneakers made outside the Nike factory. Coming from the streetwear community, Men's Artistic Director Virgil Abloh (1980-2021) considered the Nike Air Force 1 as a cultural symbol in its own right. Today, two icons merge to create the most authentic high-end sneakers.
