As entities at the top of their respective fields, it seemed somewhat inevitable that
Fear of God 1 and Nike would join forces for a collaboration one day. Jerry Lorenzo’s
brand adds modern-day touches and extremely high quality materials to
wardrobe staples, making for a true premium athleisure style look that’s
been copied by a multitude of brands, from his competitors to mall
chain stores. Lorenzo’s first-ever piece of Nike footwear, the Air Fear
Of God 1 released this past December, and now a “Light Bone” colorway is
set to follow.
Lorenzo worked with Leo Chang — the man responsible for the vast majority of Kevin Durant‘s signature shoes — to
create a hybrid sneaker that’s equally as ready for the courts as the
streets or the runways. The upper is constructed of an ultra-supple
leather that positively radiates premium quality, while a deconstructed
high TPU heel cage inspired by the Air Huarache Light holds together a
boot-style rope lacing system. The sole is equally as striking, and
doesn’t eschew any technology in its pursuit of a high-end look,
boasting a double-stacked Zoom Air unit in the heel for ultimate comfort
and durability. As Lorenzo is wont to do, branding is kept to a bare
minimum, with a small Swoosh on the upper cage and an embossed FOG hit
by the cushioning unit and on the heels. A zipper also appears for easy
on/off and a finishing touch of detail. Check out a full set of photos
below, and look for the Nike Fear Of God shoes to release January 12th,
with a kingly
