Since the 1980s, Nike has been frequently toying with contrasting exotic, premium materials typically found on fine leather goods with product made for sport. Models like the Air Python, Air Jordan 3, and Air Revolution were among the pioneers of this stylish movement that is now a norm in the world of fashionable footwear.

This Holiday season, Nike is bridging that gap once more with another take on the Air Force 1 Low “Snakeskin”. This time around, a natural coloring in dark browns and black appear on the scaly upper, with the exotic snake panels appearing on the toe-guard, lace-collar, and heel.

Smooth, flat black leather is added on the AF1’s base layer to contrast against the lux material, while a dark ashy brown suede appears on the Swoosh logo to complete that true elevated look.

In fact, you should get used to snakeskin appearing across a number of footwear models throughout the earlier part of 2025; the Year Of The Snake, an official observance of the Chinese zodiac calendar, will product several must-have concepts including the Air Force 1 Low.

Nike Sportswear will launch this AF1 this Holiday 2024 season for $130.
