The Nike Air Force 1 Low Off-White University Gold Metallic Silver is a striking collaboration between Nike and Virgil Abloh, released to commemorate the opening of Abloh’s Figures of Speech exhibition at ICA Boston in 2021. As one of the most coveted Air Force 1 collaborations to date, this sneaker redefines streetwear through a bold mix of color, texture, and architectural design.
