Nike X NIGO Unveil Epic First-Ever Collaboration

Nike and NIGO have officially announced their highly-anticipated first collaboration, marking the start of what NIGO calls “a long and exciting journey.” This debut partnership kicks off with a revamped Air Force 3 silhouette, dubbed “Blue Void,” and a collection of apparel.

The Air Force 3 Low “Blue Void” draws inspiration from some of NIGO’s favorite films and shows, and, as mentioned in a press release, future releases will continue to incorporate elements from NIGO’s vast cultural references. This sneaker features a combination of embossed leather, a rubber outsole, midsole foam, and distinct graphic details on both the tongue and heel.

As part of the apparel collection, Nike and NIGO are offering a varsity jacket and hoodie, both designed with a strong influence from NIGO’s unique cultural perspective.

Fans can get their hands on the capsule collection starting September 28, with an exclusive drop at Otsumo Plaza in Tokyo and at the “I Know Nigo 2” pop-up event in New York. A wider release via Nike’s SNKRS app will follow on October 4.

This collaboration has been anticipated since rumors first surfaced over a year ago, following NIGO’s transition from Adidas and Human Made to Nike. His appearance in Air Force 3 Lows earlier this year further fueled speculation of an official project. Then, in June, at his Spring/Summer 2025 show for KENZO, NIGO debuted a vibrant version of the collaborative AF3 Lows, confirming the upcoming release.

Now, the collaboration has been revealed, featuring the “Blue Void” colorway with its striking patent leather upper showcasing shades of blue, red, yellow, and pink. The design is completed with a special “NIGO FORCE” silver detail on the heel, flanked by Nike’s iconic Swoosh.

While an official release date is yet to be confirmed, the sneakers are expected to launch this fall at a price of $160 via Nike SNKRS and select retailers. Stay tuned for more updates.
