Camouflage is a funny concept in fashion. The design was made to blend in with the elements and hide the wearer, but on city streets and runways, the all-over print is used to stand out against a sea of simple color blocking. Nike has been leaning into the incognito fabric this Fall, but the latest camo Air Force 1 stays true to the pattern’s original intent, blending in with panels of brown and suede and nubuck.
The Nike Air Force 1 Realtree Rattan keeps the camo to a minimum, adding Realtree forest patterns to the Swooshes, heel counter, and tongue label. The rest of the upper is split between rattan suede on the toe box and side panels, and rocky tan nubuck covering the toe cap, lace panel, and heel.
