Name: Vibram x Nike Air Force 1 Low GORE-TEXColorway: Grey Fog/Particle Grey-Photon Dust-Metallic SilverSKU: HV5953-001MSRP: $170 USDRelease Date: Holiday 2025Where to Buy: NikeThe classic Nike Air Force 1 Low has been completely overhauled and fortified to tackle any weather condition. In a strategic fusion of performance technology, Nike has paired the iconic silhouette with a Vibram outsole and a GORE-TEX membrane, creating a shoe that is equal parts street legend and outdoor gear. The collaboration’s “Black” colorway is a sleek, monochromatic statement. The latest hue comes after the “Clay Green” and “Summit White” have been revealed. The entire upper is constructed from waterproof materials and lined with GORE-TEX, guaranteeing protection against rain and snow. This focus on utility is balanced by a minimalist aesthetic, allowing the aggressive, lugged Vibram outsole to be the visual focal point. This chunky, trail-ready sole transforms the traditionally flat-bottomed Air Force 1 into all-terrain footwear.The detailing subtly confirms the shoe’s rugged purpose. The lace dubraes are etched with the GORE-TEX logo, signaling its weather-ready construction. This technical upgrade elevates the AF1’s durability, making it a reliable choice for unpredictable conditions without sacrificing its timeless style. The Vibram x Nike Air Force 1 Low GORE-TEX is expected to be released this Holiday 2025.
