Nike, Inc.’s 2024 Halloween lineup is quickly becoming one of the company’s biggest holiday collections, with launches spanning multiple brands including Jordan Brand, Nike Basketball and Nike Sportswear. With the spooky season nearing, yet another pair has surfaced that will be joining the fast-growing series.
With details similar to the Halloween-themed Nike Dunk Lows which surfaced at the beginning of the month, this upcoming Nike Air Force 1 Low blends elevated materials with 3D details. Images shared by Instagram user @jw0574 give an idea of what to expect from the upcoming release.
Unlike the brighter neon colors seen on the Dunk Low, the Air Force 1 Low takes a darker approach with a dark red cracked leather upper. The leather appears to have a wear-away effect which could reveal a lighter color underneath, but that feature has yet to be confirmed.
Matching the Dunk Low, the ’24 “Halloween” Air Force 1 Low dons a molded plastic skull motif that fills in the entire toe box. This molded material is also used on the Swoosh logo on both sides of the shoe. Blacked waxed shoelaces add a premium touch, which could be indicative of a higher-than-usual retail price.
While this large skull shape is a new look for the Air Force 1, Nike has previously used skeleton themes on the sneaker for Halloween releases. Beginning in 2018, the Air Force 1 was released in white with an X-ray-like skeletal foot depiction on its sides. The concept was revisited with new colors releasing in black (2019), orange (2020) and purple (2021).
Along with this newly surfaced Nike Air Force 1 Low and the aforementioned Dunk Low, Nike’s slate of Halloween releases this year includes an “X-ray” Kobe 5 Protro, special colorways of Devin Booker and Ja Morant’s signature sneakers and an Air Jordan 1 Low equipped with a light-up tongue.
As of publishing, the is no confirmed release date for this Nike Air Force 1 Low “Halloween” colorway, but readers can expect it to be released in October. This story will be updated with more details as they’re announced.
