No More Air Force 1s?

First off, welcome to all the new readers who came in from our Kobe post on IG, and I am happy to confirm we will be giving away the Reverse Grinches on FRIDAY. Obviously there can only be one winner, but we have other kicks for you guys like the Tatum’s, Luka’s, Reebok’s and more so I hope you stick around 🙏

Today we’re talking about Nike, who is reportedly slowing down production of one of their most popular models of all-time 😏

The Air Force 1 is widely considered the most accessible and versatile sneakers of our generation, so why would Nike stop making them? Here’s what Nike’s CFO had to say about it 👇

Honestly I’ve probably seen enough dunks for the rest of my life, but please don’t stop making the AF1. The last resale on the White Uptowns is only $82…imagine if they stop making them and that number skyrockets? 👀

Currently I know a lot of people who treat AF1 like they’re a white tee. They wear ‘em a handful of times and then ditch them for a new pair. I personally don’t spend bread like that, but the wide spread availability of these AF1 clearly plays an integral role in the manner in which people purchase them 💰

If they actually go through with halting production we may start seeing people bust out those toothbrushes and start giving last summer’s pair a good cleaning. AF1 scarcity would be a nightmare for a lot of people. Like if these became some $300 shoe on StockX I’d be super sick over that. The Supreme AF1s may end up being some of the most coveted shoes of all-time 📈

Don’t forget to check back in on Friday…Kobe’s LOADING 🐍
