How does the Mid differ from the Air Force 1 Low?

The Mid has a higher collar and an ankle strap for more coverage. The Low is lower-cut and slightly lighter. Both share the leather upper and Air-Sole cushioning.

Is the Triple Black version real leather?

Nike builds the Air Force 1 '07 with a leather upper, and this colorway is all black from upper to outsole.

Do they run true to size?

The Air Force 1 line generally fits true to size, though the bulky build means wide feet may want to try them on first.

Are they good for basketball?

They were designed as basketball shoes, but the current version is a lifestyle shoe. The cushioning and grip suit casual wear more than competitive play.

How should I clean them?

Wipe the leather with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing, which can damage the leather and midsole.

Our take on the Nike Air Force 1 Mid '07 'Triple Black' CW2289-001

The Air Force 1 Mid '07 is Nike's mid-cut take on the 1982 basketball shoe that became a street staple. This 'Triple Black' version wraps the leather upper, midsole and outsole in black for a low-key look. The mid-top collar and ankle strap give more coverage than the Low, while the Air-Sole unit and padded collar keep it comfortable for all-day wear. It is heavier and bulkier than slim retro runners, so it suits people who want a durable, structured sneaker rather than a lightweight one.
