Product Information
Full details
This guide is for sneaker enthusiasts and fashion-forward individuals seeking a statement piece that blends iconic heritage with avant-garde design. The key benefit is owning a unique collaboration that offers standout style and a conversation starter. A caveat is that the exposed foam and unique construction may require more delicate care than standard sneakers. The Nike The 10 Air Force 1 Low in Black, designed by Virgil Abloh, reinvents the classic Air Force 1 silhouette. It features a distinctive upper constructed from ripstop and suede, secured with taped seams and a white Swoosh detailed with zigzag stitching. The design intentionally includes exposed foam elements on the tongue and misplaced tags, with 'LOGO' subtly placed on the heel tab for a meta touch. This shoe is ideal for those looking to make a bold fashion statement by integrating a piece of streetwear history into their wardrobe.

FAQs
What makes this Air Force 1 different from the classic version?
This version, designed by Virgil Abloh, features a deconstructed aesthetic with exposed foam, taped seams, zigzag stitching on the Swoosh, and unique branding elements, deviating from the standard Air Force 1 construction.
How should I clean the exposed foam on the tongue?
Use a soft, dry brush to remove surface dust. For light marks, a slightly damp cloth can be used gently. Avoid soaking or aggressive scrubbing.
Are these shoes suitable for everyday wear?
While they are built on the comfortable Air Force 1 sole, the unique deconstructed elements suggest they are best suited for casual wear and fashion-focused occasions rather than rigorous athletic activity.
What does 'The 10' refer to?
'The 10' refers to Virgil Abloh's initial collaboration with Nike, which reimagined ten iconic Nike shoes with his signature deconstructed and meta-textual design language.
How do I care for the suede parts of the shoe?
Use a suede brush to maintain the nap and remove dirt. For protection, apply a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for suede. Avoid getting the suede wet.
Are there other colorways available for this model?
This specific model is the black version. Related collaborations and other Air Force 1 models may come in various colorways, but this particular design is known in black.
What is the sizing like for these shoes?
These shoes generally follow standard Nike sizing for the Air Force 1 line. It is recommended to consult Nike's official size chart or try them on if possible for the best fit.
Troubleshooting
Exposed foam fraying
Gently trim any stray threads with small, sharp scissors. Avoid excessive pulling.
Suede becoming dirty
Use a dedicated suede eraser and brush. For stubborn stains, consult a professional shoe cleaner specializing in premium sneakers.
Taped seams coming loose
If minor, a small amount of fabric glue might provide a temporary fix. For significant separation, consult a cobbler experienced with designer sneakers.
General dirt on upper
Wipe gently with a slightly damp cloth and mild soap. Immediately dry with a clean, dry cloth. Do not soak the shoes.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Due to the exposed foam and taped seams, it is recommended to clean these sneakers with a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid harsh scrubbing, especially on the foam and stitched details.
- Material Care: For the suede portions, use a suede brush and protectant spray. For ripstop and leather, a mild cleaner can be used sparingly.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe box or dust bag to prevent dust accumulation and maintain shape. Avoid direct sunlight for prolonged periods, which can affect color.
- Avoidance: It is advisable to avoid wearing these sneakers in extremely wet or muddy conditions to protect the materials and deconstructed elements.
