Biomechanically curved soles match natural foot motion
The Nike Air Force 1 Mid Izakaya is a unique colorway that nods to Japanese Izakaya culture. An August 2022 release, the Izakaya is inspired by the popular Japanese bar that serves small dishes and alcoholic beverages for the after-work crowd. The shoe features a receipt embellishment on the tongue. Instead of containing items commonly found in Izakaya restaurants, the receipt details a timeline of the Air Force 1s history. The upper is complete with a tan canvas base and beige leather overlays. A black textile Swoosh appears on either side of the shoe and a red embroidered star with a black Swoosh logo is found on the lateral side of the heel. Anime-inspired characters on the heel complete the look. IzakayaKickplate reinforcements withstand repeated board contact abrasion.
