Don’t call it a comeback: Call it a double comeback. Billie Eilish and Nike are back at it with another collaborative sneaker, with the silhouette of choice having a comeback itself – in comes the Billie Eilish x Nike Air Alpha Force 88, releasing in two versatile colorways.
Both pairs come constructed with a full leather build with ribbed collars, signature mid-foot strap and ‘AAF88’ branding on the tongues, while co-branded insoles complete the design. While the black-and-white model keeps things perfectly simple color-wise, the red-and white version nods to the OG colorway that Michael Jordan played in, making it one of the rare non-Air Jordan models that MJ wore back in 1988 (when, you might have guessed it, the shoe first made its debut).
As seen on previous collabs of the singer with Nike, both colorways set themselves apart from the regular version of the shoe by incorporating repurposed materials: Synthetic leather and textile are being used on the upper, while recycled TPU can be found on the forefoot strap, recycled polyester on the liner, and algae ink was used to color the heel, midsole and tongue.
Both colorways of the Billie Eilish x Nike Air Alpha Force 88 release at BSTN on Tuesday, August 8th. Pick up your pair via the respective button below!
