The 10th, not the 10 by Virgil Abloh, is a series that takes new and classic Nike footwear and gives the pairs a utilitarian update. The shoes are rougher and ready for the harsh temperature, but still street ready. Another drop in the The 10th comes in the form of the AF1 Gore-Tex.
This post is primarily about the Air Force 1 which, like the Air Jordan 1, remains a Nike go to drop to drive engagement. The Air Force 1, unlike the AJ1, is a sleeper in resale. While many people overlook the model, in the last 3 days I’ve sold 18 pair at an average price of 126.00 per pair. The retail price on most Air Force 1s is 90-100 dollars.

Nike has a bevy of dope releases on the horizon for the Air Force 1. You can use the source link above or scroll this gallery for more info:
The Air Force 1 Gore-Tex is an exercise in translating the AF1 for winter-weather protection. Two approaches are taken: The first, a High, reforms past considerations (including AF1 Duck Boot tooling) and adds a new twist with a customizable, zippered bootie. This allows for multiple styling options, as well as a rugged aesthetic. The low version keeps things classic, layering ballistic nylon and full-grain leather over a Gore-Tex lining.
The latest iteration of the Air Force 1 NBA pack is highlighted by a satin heel and first-time-ever split Swoosh design. Low versions cover a full gamut of the league’s most common colors — red, yellow, black and navy — while the High reflects the vibe of three storied franchises. All pairs will be available in size 3.5 and up.
A follow up to the 2018’s White Skeleton, the Air Force I black skeleton brings a reflective outsole and glow-in-the-dark bones print to a black base.
The Air Force 1 Swoosh Pack features extra Swoosh details on the toe box and special “Swoosh” text on the U-throat in place of the traditional brand mark.
Head-turning flair is what the Air Force 1 Snakeskin is all about. The shoe is inspired, in part, by pregame tunnel entrances, and will drop in grey, yellow and white colorways.
In addition to these five styles, the Air Force 1 Under Construction draws from London’s building boom and references construction jackets and traffic cones via an in-lay Swoosh, grid pattern and added toe-tip details.
