Overview
- The collaboration, announced Wednesday, pairs Nigo with longtime ally Jun Takahashi on an Air Force 1 Low named “LO2” after their 1990s column Last Orgy 2.
- Pairs will release May 1 exclusively at London’s Design Museum alongside Nigo’s new exhibition, then roll out May 2 via Humanmade.jp, Undercover, Nike SNKRS and select retailers for $150.
- Nike says the build returns to the slimmer 2001 AF1 shape, with navy patent overlays on a white base and LO2 heel embroidery that nods to the duo’s Nowhere shop signage.
- Branding details include “Nigo Air” tongue tags and insoles printed with LO2, matching a campaign that recreates the look of the original magazine column.
- A coaches jacket and a T-shirt complete the capsule, while coverage casts the linkup as a symbolic resolution to years of debate over Bape’s AF1-inspired Bape Sta.
