Nike Air Force 1 ‘1837’ Tiffany & Co. Friends and Family

In March of 2023, Nike and Tiffany & Co. teamed up to release the sought-after Nike x Tiffany & Co. Air Force 1. Paying homage to the brand’s heritage, the shoe was produced using premium materials, including Tiffany’s 925 silver on the back of the shoe.

This lot features the extremely limited Friends and Family variation of the Nike x Tiffany & Co. AF1 release. In a reverse colorway of the wider release, the Friends and Family comes dressed in a predominantly Tiffany Blue upper, with black accents.

The Air Force 1, arguably Nike’s most iconic sneaker, is in many regards, the first of its kind. Previously realized in running shoes, the introduction of Nike’s ‘Air’ technology in the midsole was a revolutionary concept for basketball sneakers. Tasked with bringing the concept to life, designer Bruce Kilgore and an aerospace engineer brought the project to fruition with a hiking boot-inspired, ankle-strapped, high top. Kilgore’s first basketball sneaker, the Air Force 1 was brought to market in 1982.
