Nike DH5623-100

When you first get a glimpse of it, the Nike Air Force 1 Mid QS Jewel Ale Brown might look like a sneaker that Nike put out back in the 1980s, when the AF1 was still in its heyday. But in reality, this AF1 is a modernized version of the iconic silhouette that is simply made to have a retro feel to it. This Nike AF1 sneaker features a white upper constructed out of tumbled leather with metallic Ale Brown overlays that are strategically positioned on its toe cap, forefoot, and heel, as well as on its ankle strap. It also has orange jeweled Swooshes on its sides and orange Nike branding on the tongue, strap, and heel, along with a cream rubber midsole that ties its appearance all together. Our experts are impressed with how Nike managed to take the AF1 and give it this retro vibe while also ensuring it would look right at home in the 2020s. The Nike Air Force 1 Mid QS Jewel Ale Brown was released on April 28, 2022, and it initially retailed for $140.
