Comme Des Garcons Black Air Force 1 Supreme​

This is the Supreme x Comme des Garçons SHIRT x Nike Air Force 1 Low, released as part of Supreme’s Fall/Winter 2018 collectionSupreme x Comme des Garçons SHIRT x Air Force 1 Low released as part of the NYC streetwear brand’s Fall/Winter 2018 collection.. Three names on one shoe, and the design earns that billing rather than just stacking logos on top of an unchanged sneaker.

The shoe sports a subtly textured black leather upper, matched with a contrasting white leather Swoosh that’s divided and misaligned in the middle. That broken Swoosh is the detail that defines the entire release. It’s a unique Swoosh logo, slashed straight down the middle, turning Nike’s most recognisable brand mark into something deconstructed rather than simply present.

Key Features

• Black tumbled leather upper
• Signature “Split Swoosh” design, divided and misaligned
• Co-branded heel detailing
• Classic Air Force 1 Low silhouette
• White contrasting midsole
• Black rubber outsole

Product Details

The Split Swoosh

Made in collaboration with the pioneering Japanese fashion brand, the design gives the familiar silhouette an unfinished look in keeping with Rei Kawakubo’s avant-garde sensibility, even on a base as iconic and unchanging as the Air Force 1. Rather than leaving the Swoosh untouched, the design team cut it apart and reset it slightly off axis, turning Nike’s most recognisable mark into a deconstructed detail that reads as deliberate rather than damaged.

Its heel carries embroidered branding from Supreme and CDG as well as the customary Nike Air logo, keeping the collaboration’s three-way identity visible without overcrowding the shoe.

How to Wear Them

With CDG or Supreme pieces
The black and white colourway keeps the shoe versatile enough to pair with either brand’s clothing without clashing.

Kept simple
Given how much visual interest the split Swoosh already provides, these work best with a clean, uncomplicated outfit that lets the shoe stay the focal point.

Sizing

True to standard Air Force 1 sizing.

Care Instructions

Use a leather cleaner with a soft brush for the black upper. Address scuffs as they happen. Store away from direct sunlight and use a shoe tree to help maintain shape. Avoid prolonged water exposure.
