At this point, NOBU is well established as a known hotspot in New York City, with founder Nobu Matsuhisa genuinely building an empire on top of that Big Apple location and his original Los Angeles branch. In 2021, he and Chris Stamp staked out into the apparel realm, launching Sushi Club and often tying back into his roster of restaurants. Now, the brand reels in its biggest catch to date, earning an official Air Force 1 x Sushi Club collaboration.
Long-time readers may clock that this isn’t the first time the Swoosh and Sushi Club have come together. Indeed, a Beverly Hills and a New York variation predate the one featured here, but their family & friends nature means the shoe at hand remains a real development. Overall, the simplistic, refined overtones remain from those two shoes, but there’s enough variation to raise this above the run of subtly branded “Triple White.” A light grey suede Swoosh, tumbled leather overlays, and silvery branding notes (including a crossed chopstick lace dubrae) help this version of the Air Force 1 “Sushi Club” become its own.
The Sushi Club x Nike Air Force 1 Low is expected to see a wide launch sometime before the end of the year. Retail pricing is current unknown. In the meantime, catch the complete range official images included below and keep our Sneaker Release Dates hub within reach for more updates.
