Rumours of Drake’s Air force 1 have been circling around the sneakersphere for over two years now, but this is our best look yet at the champagne Papi’s take on the famous basketball shoe. Based off the classic “Triple White” colourway that we all know and love, the tumbled leather looks pretty luxurious. A Swoosh shoots across the lateral and medial side panels, while Nocta’s signature three star logo is finely embroidered around the left heel.
The phrase “Love you forever” replaces the normal “Air”, and the classic star-filled outsole has been dropped in favour of hundreds of tiny hearts that fall in line with the collaboration’s theme. This unit is apparently the reason why the NOCTA AF1 has been cancelled. According to our sources, Nike were having problems with mass-producing this midsole and they haven’t been able to find a option for it. with that said, these are just rumours for now, so take them with a grain of salt.
