Nike Torch Spring Preview

We’ve seen Torch technology pop up in a few pairs of Nikes lately, including the Air Maxim 1 shots we had yesterday. Today we’re not only adding a second pair to the Air Maxim 1 stable, but also introducing a classic Nike that’s newly Torch-infused in this special Nike Air Force 1 High.

This second pair uses black as its main color, as it appears on the lower portion of the upper and the mesh stretched over the Torch. Unlike the pair featured in the 2010 Spring Preview, the Torch here is done in white, which matches the tongue label. The laces, midsole and Swoosh are all done in yellow, while a hum outsole finishes it off. For the Air Force 1 “Torch,” leather appears on the heel section and toe box. The mid-panel and top of the toe are done with the black-on-black Torch, providing an all black look, but with well-mixed materials.
