Return of the Jewel Swoosh Air Force 1
Nike, where sneaker dreams come true. Nice tagline, right? Nike Sportswear is bringing back the beloved Jewel Swoosh Nike Air Force 1 next year. Honestly, there’s nothing else to say after that. In case you don’t get the picture, the Jewel Swoosh Air Force 1 is coming back Fall 2012. No word on all the confirmed colorways, but here’s a sneak peek at two colors that will release in 2012. Will Nike re-release some of the classic colors? Only time will tell. Hopefully the leather is on point. Spotted at SN via HC
Take a look at the grey Jewel AF1 and a few more NSW 2012 releases.

I’m excited about those AF1′s.
Those air force ones are definitely 90s fresh.
Granted, I wasn’t in the game back when the jewel swoosh was prevalent, but I just don’t get the big deal with the jewel swoosh. It makes shoe look really weird imo, but I’m happy for people who really like these
Never owned any of these…not huge on AF1′s anymore but I will probably have to grab at least one pair of jewels for sure
I knew the Jewels were bound to make a comeback
Great news!
crazy in ga the jeweled af1 was always on the sales rack and cheaper so those were the ones i always got :/
GREAT NEWS, BUT ALSO BAD NEWS…
GREAT NEWS BECAUSE THERE JEWELS!!!!
BAD NEWS B/C THEY WILL NOT BE NEAR THE SAME AS THE 90′S LOL
.
HOWEVER I WILL COP EVERY JEWEL THAT DROPS X2
.
BUT THEY WILL NOT BE THE SAME AT ALL AS THE 90′S
THE LEATHER WILL NOT BE THE SAME
THE TOE SHAPE WILL NOT BE THE SAME
THE MIDSOLE WILL NOT BE THE SAME
(MOST PEOPLE BUYING THESE THIS GO ROUND WONT HAVE A CLUE WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT IF THEY’VE NEVER OWNED THE 90′S VERSIONS)
.
WHAT MAKES THE 90′S JEWELS SO GREAT IS THE OVERALL SHAPE, THE TOE BOX SHAPE ESPECIALLY, THE MIDSOLE, AND THE QUALITY LEATHER
.
EITHERWAY THOUGH ILL STILL COP EVERY PAIR X2 THAT DROPS!
OH AND YES THAT IS 2 PAIRS OF PLAYSTATIONS IN MY AVATAR
no thanks
1997 all over again. Back then it was high tops. Now low tops?
Those dunks are clean..I like!
yo g-Roc, people dont know about the jewel swoosh! they takin it back to ’97-’98 on these cats.
go back and look at Camron’s “.357″ video and u see Cam & Mase sportin them in the video!
classic!
I remember I had the high top blue and Orange jewels those were the days
@ Hillbillywilly (like the name) I was in Highschool when they drop AF1s like that and at the time it was just sumthing different… Nowadays shoes are bugged out crazy with all the themes and technologies and such… but bak then things were a little simpler and jeweled/gemed out swooshes were just something that’s wasn’t done before… I remember cats taking gucci fendi and LV print and customizing their kicks too… Aaaah how times have changed…..
I had the black and reds when i was like 10 lol…cant wait
No.
Best news of the month. Been waitin for jewels since I had the chrome collection joints during my freshman year. You never saw a weak colorway of jewels.
