Nike

Following a series of joint efforts between CLOT and NIKE which began in 2006, this 2020 collaboration features a premium Rose Gold colorway and tearaway silk design. CLOT co-founders Edison Chen and Kevin Poon’s design celebrates the traditional concept of Yin and Yang and balance of externalism and internalism.

The unique build features patterned CLOT Rose Gold silk fabric that can be burned, cut, scratched or torn to reveal a leather base underneath. CLOT has shared that their intention behind the double layer was a reminder to look beyond the surface and “search for what lies within." The pattern of the silk is inspired by thousand-year-old Chinese decorative designs symbolizing luck and prosperity.

Originally released in 1982, the Air Force 1 is named after the presidential aircraft. Designed by Bruce Kilgore, it was the first basketball shoe to feature revolutionary air pocket technology. Today, it is one of Nike’s most iconic, best-selling sneakers.
