Check out the on foot detailed photos of the 2019 Colin Kaepernick x Nike Air Force 1 straight out of Yankeekicks closet. Colin Kaepernick famously began taking a knee during the National Anthem to peacefully protest police brutality back in 2016. In December 2019, Nike released the Colin Kaepernick AF 1, adding his voice to the True to 7 series. The silhouette focuses on the Black leather upper, accented with White in the Air midsole, heel counters featuring Kaepernick’s face, his hair an afro and in the quarter panel Swooshes transitioning towards the heel. The latter may pay homage to Colin’s own heritage, as bi-racial man adopted into a White family. Kaepernick’s personal logo coats the tongue tab and the sole insert features a shattered White mask graphic in each sneaker. Additionally, a translucent rubber outsole and True to 7 hangtag comes with each pair. The AF 1 Colin Kaepernick retailed for $110 and sold in a full range of sizes from Mens to Infants. Currently, they are sold out through Nike however with the U.S. protesting in all 50 states against police brutality, perhaps the Nike Air Force 1 Colin Kaepernick will see a resurgence soon.
