A Nod to the 2006 All-Star AF1
Back in 2006, Nike dropped an exclusive Air Force 1 to celebrate the NBA All-Star Weekend in Houston. The shoe featured a dazzling night-sky-inspired design with silver "star dust" sprinkled across a navy blue base, mirroring the event’s constellation-themed visuals. Fast forward to today, and this new Star-Studded AF1 feels like a spiritual successor.
"The 2006 All-Star AF1 was an instant grail. This new release captures that same cosmic energy but with a refreshed twist," notes sneaker historian Marcus Lee.
