Lil Yachty Shows off Concrete Boys Patent Leather All-Star Air Force 1 Mid PE

Even with a more entertaining basketball exhibition than expected, last week’s All-Star Weekend still felt more like a sneaker celebration than a hoops party. While the entire city felt like it was running around as fast as possible to stand in the longest lines known to mankind, celebrities from every corner of the culture were pulling up in exclusive pairs and early releases to flex on the hordes of waiting sneakerheads. And when it comes to flexing, Lil Yachty may as well be on steroids.

Pulling out a newly minted blast from All-Star past, Little Boat opted for Instagram flexing instead of this weekend’s events, taking to IG to post a new PE that had sneakerheads double-taking, bringing back the iconic Air Force 1 All-Star from 2006 for a 20-year redux on a pair of mid-top Forces with Concrete Boys branding.

The Lil Yachty x Nike Air Force 1 Mid ASW PE was a throwback to the days of Air Force 1 Mid domination, taking the classic AF1 Low colorway with red and blue patent paneling covered in white stars and bringing it to the mid-top silhouette, complete with a red patent strap covered in more stars. The Yachty PE features the Concrete Boys logo in white on the heel and sample labels on the inside.

Unfortunately for Air Force 1 purists, this pair won’t be hitting retail shelves and was made for Yachty to celebrate last week’s All-Star festivities. To keep up with all the latest Nike celebrity PE news, download the Sole Retriever app.
