Nike

Originally released in 2001 as a Japan-exclusive, the Nike Air Force 1 “Linen” has become one of the most sought-after Air Force 1s in existence. In 2016, for the opening of Kith’s Miami flagship during Art Basel, Nike revived this ultra-rare model as a 1-to-1 replica of the original, featuring a narrowed silhouette, premium leather, and a neoprene liner. The palette, inspired by the natural hues of South Beach, brought a distinct local flavor to the classic design, offered exclusively in-store at Kith Miami.

To celebrate the release and the store opening, Kith and Nike collaborated with graffiti legend Futura, who created a one-of-a-kind installation in the flagship’s window. The artist’s signature fine lines and abstract vision highlighted the model’s legacy and the cultural significance of the Air Force 1. Futura also designed special acrylic box packaging, decorated with his atom tag, for a limited number of 50 units, gifted to close friends and family of Kith.

Offered in this lot is a 2016 Nike Air Force 1 Linen, accompanied by a signed acrylic box by Futura. The sneakers are further accompanied by a letter from James Spence regarding the signature.
