Air Force 1 Low Essential  sneakers Originally presented in 1982, Nike's 'Air Force' silhouette has taken on many variations over the years, like these Air Force 1 '07 Essential sneakers. Presented as an updated re-release in 2007, this low-top pair features a more contemporary take on the OG classic sneaker design, with panels of white and black leather with a miniature embroidered Swoosh logo for added charm.
