Nike Drops the Air Force 1 SK8 in Sleek "Black/Gum" Colourway
Nike is giving the legendary Air Force 1 a skate-ready makeover with the new Air Force 1 SK8. Dropping in a clean “Black/Gum” colourway, this revamped classic is designed for those who want both style and function—whether you’re on a board or just keeping things casual.

Sticking to its roots, the AF1 SK8 features a black leather base with suede overlays, adding a refined touch to the streetwear staple. A white leather Swoosh cuts through the darkness, while Nike’s branding sits proudly on the tongue tag, insoles, and debossed heel logo.

But the real highlight? Performance upgrades. The gum rubber outsole provides extra grip for better board control, while a padded tongue and cushioned insole ensure all-day comfort.
Set to launch in Summer 2025, the Nike Air Force 1 SK8 “Black/Gum” will be available via Nike and select retailers for £95 GBP. With a mix of heritage, luxury, and skate functionality, these won’t sit on shelves for long.
