Every sneakerhead knows the struggles of keeping their white-on-white Air Force 1s fresh and clean throughout the summer months, but now, Nike is trying to flip the script and are about to drop some white Air Force 1s that already come dirty and dogged.

According to Sneaker News, the “new” triple white Air Force 1s will come “fresh” out the box looking like a pair of discarded 1s you’d find hanging from power lines on the street, but actually get whiter the more you wear them. While we’re not sure why Nike would go this route (seriously), they’re going to release these and there’s nothing we can do to stop them.
Per Sneaker News:
Indeed, in an inversion of typical “wear away” releases, this metatextual Air Force 1comes pre-distressed a la a Golden Goose or a Balenciaga. A sheer layer over top eventually reveals a regular pair of Uptowns with regular use. Notably, Nike is also acknowledging those who prefer to rip the bandage off as soon as they unbox any such shoes — a toothproof attachment with this shoe allows you to do the dirty work immediately.
The .SWOOSH enterprise has been defined in recent months by their “Low Poly” run of Air Max 1s, first spinning off the OG “Sport Red” with Kai Cenat before executing a nostalgia-fueled trip through video games of old. However, this does fit in well with the sub-brand’s cheeky register they were establishing before those AM1s.While this shoe diverges from pairs like the Air Force 1 “404 Error” given its certifiable offline quality, it still upholds the AF1 as the face of the imprint, already established well with the “TINAJ” series and “Our Force 1” further back.
Yeah, we’re not sure the “Dirty Triple White” Air Force 1s are going to help Nike’s stock numbers rebound as Trump’s tariffs continue to loom over the sneaker industry, with heads knowing prices are about to jump in the near future.
The “Dirty Triple White” Air Force 1s are set to release on May 7 at the tune of $130. While we’re pretty sure these will brick, we wouldn’t be surprised if you see some hipsters out in the wild rocking these joints with pride. Then again, they could just be regular Air Force 1s that they’ve dogged beyond recognition because we won’t be able to tell one from another.
Would you cop the “Dirty” white-on-white Air Force 1s? Let us know in the comments section below.

Street interviews have become a trend, but one conservative reporter got more than she bargained for, resulting in her being punched in the face. The incident occurred between Savannah Craven Antao, a reporter for the pro-life media outlet Live Action, and Brianna Rivers last Friday (April 4) outside in the neighborhood of Harlem, New York.
The interview started cordially, as Craven Antao asked Rivers her thoughts on the non-profit women’s health organization Planned Parenthood.
Rivers, a Bronx native, expressed her support for the group and how they help young girls and women. “Some women just don’t have it in them, and they abandon them [their child] and abuse them and all kinds of stuff— and it’s like, girl, just get rid of it if you know you’re going to do that,” she said. Things got more intense as Craven Antao pivoted to the topic of foster care. “Why don’t they [women] just stop having sex with people they don’t want to have a child with?” she asked Rivers, who agreed but stated that she believed in a woman’s right to choose.
“You don’t get to kill the baby just because their dad didn’t want them. Should we kill the kids in foster care?” Craven Antao retorted, which made Rivers upset. “Why not? Who’s gonna take care of them? I need to know the percentage of people who take children from foster care, abuse them, and molest them, who make them like personal slaves. I need specifics before you come to talk to me about pro-life.” she replied. When Craven Antao pushed back, Rivers then punched her directly in the face. She would upload the video interview afterward, showing her reaction and bloodied face.Craven Antao would tell the New York Post a day after that the incident that she was still “stressed” about what happened. “Every time I go on my phone and I open any social media, I see the video of myself being assaulted. And it’s like I go back to the moment. It’s terrifying,” she said. Rivers took to Facebook to defend herself, apologizing but also asking for help against right-wingers online. “To Savannah, I sincerely apologize but cannot sit around and allow you to continue pushing this one-sided narrative,” Rivers wrote. “I understand hands being put on someone is never the answer, but throwing rocks and hiding hands is worse. She knows the truth and she needs to release the footage in its entirety.”

As reported by Hypebeast the Paris, France-based company is launching a collection with Under Armour. Originally teased on Thursday, May 30 at the Spring 2025 runway show, Balenciaga premiered several ready to wear pieces ranging from belts, outerwear and track pants. Even though all the wears from the show are not yet available the initial drop leads with a lock up of both logos throughout.
In the first roll out of the capsule collection are a set of tops, bottoms and a couple of accessories including a hooded fleece sweatshirt shorts, a dad cap and sweatpants with a wide leg. Additionally, we get some baggy t-shirts available in black and red. At first glance the collection appears to just be co-branded versions of sportswear items as there are no details speaking to these pieces being made from premium materials.
The Balenciaga x Under Armour collection is available now. As expected these pieces come at a premium with the hoodie carrying a ticket of $1,450. You can shop the drop here.
