Mirroring The Constellation Magic

Limited to just 400 pairs worldwide, the new AF1 showcases:

  • Iridescent blue leather resembling nebulas
  • Precisely placed metallic foil stars constructed via NASA-grade mapping
  • A glow-in-the-dark constellation pattern like the 2006 original

"That 2006 All-Star drop was my childhood grail. Seeing the celestial theme return with today's tech? Cosmic."

Why The 2006 AF1 Changed The Game

2006 All-Star Edition

  • First AF1 with astronomical motifs
  • Tonal embroidered star mappings
  • Packaging featuring Zodiac themes

2023 Constellation Series
