Get hands-on with Nike’s Air Force 1 LX Tear Away

Nike has gone all arts and crafts with their latest release, introducing the Air Force 1 LX Tear-Away.

And with scissor marks, dotted lines, and ‘Tear Hear’ text, the Beaverton-brand’s DIY-inspired pair takes a leaf out of the brand’s Stranger Things ‘Upside Down’ pack, encouraging you to dissect the uppers to reveal the treats hidden below.

So go and get hands-on and start ripping and tearing the model’s textile uppers to uncover the pair’s multi-coloured leather base. Don’t worry if you’re new to a tear-away silhouette; Nike has included a few dos and don’ts to stop any mishaps: be careful not to cut the seams, don’t slice or scratch the leather below, and most importantly, don’t burn them!

But if the Air Force 1’s colourful innards are not for you, you can always keep the Air-cushioned pair’s clean white uppers box-fresh – although a cautious approach is advised.

The Air Force 1 LX Tear Away is now sold out.
