In honor of Air Force 1s’ 25th anniversary, MTV hosted 1 Night Only, a special New York City event celebrating the iconic silhouette. The event consisted of performances from hip-hop legends KRS-ONE, Rakim and NAS. Produced exclusively for the event performers, these Air Force 1 Night Only samples commemorate the unforgettable celebration.

Completed in the classic Air Force silhouette, the pair features an embossed purple upper with a matching Swoosh, tongue and heel tab, and 1 Night Only branding on the tongue tag.

The Air Force 1, arguably Nike’s most iconic sneaker, is in many regards the first of its kind. 

Previously realized in running shoes, the introduction of Nike’s "Air" technology in the midsole was a revolutionary concept for basketball sneakers. Tasked with bringing the concept to life, designer Bruce Kilgore and an aerospace engineer brought the project to fruition with a hiking boot-inspired, ankle strapped, high top. Kilgore’s first basketball sneaker, the Air Force 1 was brought to market in 1982. 

Today, through hyped collaborations, unparalleled versatility, and ubiquity in popular culture, Air Force 1s continue to be a fan favorite around the world and one of Nike’s all-time best-selling sneakers.
