Following multiple indigo-colored footwear releases for the fall season, NIKEiD presents the Air Force 1 Low Aizome. Made in Japan, the shoe has a hand-dyed indigo upper and was constructed using the Sashiko embroidery method, which reinforces points of wear and increases durability through a textured pattern.Recent months have seen Nike make a strong push with “Sashiko” models, including the Dunk Low Air Jordan 4. Now, the Swoosh comes through with arguably the strongest of the series so far, with a beautifully composed model.
For Jordan Shoes Sale UK, “Sashiko” refers to a hand-sewing technique originating in ancient Japan which specializes in running stitches to reinforce or decorate cloth. This results in geometric patterns that are held in high regard for their visual impact. The uppers of this model are covered in such patterns, using a range of Blue, Black White threads. Distinct paneling separates the patterns from one another and pair strikingly with light accents around the laces, tongue heel. Suede adorns the swoosh, eye stays and heel tab, while the tongue is also made from a white “Sashiko” fabric. Under a gold lace dubrae with AF-1 ’82 branding sits an embroidered gold swoosh, partnered by stitching on the heel. The heel stitching however is in Kanji script, which partners the translucent outsole in that it also features script. Flat white laces combine with white lining and a white midsole to wrap up this model.
