A year on from the release of the Off-White™ Air Force 1 "University Gold", Virgil Abloh's expansive partnership with Nike looks set to continue with the addition of a fresh green set to the AF1 family.

Shared by friend of Abloh's Tremaine Emory, the signature Off-White™ touches can be spotted on the all-green upper and sole: the Swoosh detail is present in foiled "Metallic Silver", the green colourway is complemented by a neon green tab and hang tag while the "AIR" branding on the side of the sole stands out in contrasting white.
While release details of the shoe are not yet confirmed, it is rumoured that an upcoming release might coincide with the launch of the latest exhibition honouring Virgil Abloh and his work at the Brooklyn Museum in New York.

Opening Friday 1st July 2022 until January 2023, the exhibition expands upon the "Virgil Abloh: Figures of Speech" show first held at the MCA Chicago, showcasing "a mix of fashion, large-scale sculpture, immersive spaces, videos and sketches spanning nearly two decades of Abloh's career."
The shoe is likely to release via select Off-White™ boutiques and Nike SNKRS, with fans encouraged to keep an eye on the SNKRS app for coming information.
Tickets for the Virgil Abloh: “Figures of Speech” exhibition are available now via the Brooklyn Museum website. The exhibition is located in the building's Great Hall and runs from July 1, 2022–January 29, 2023.
