The Nike Air Force 1 Low "Leopard" Releases Fall 2026

Nike is bringing a restrained animal-print moment to the Air Force 1 Low for Fall 2026 with the "Leopard" colorway, a build that keeps things grounded in black while letting the pattern do the talking in targeted spots.

Black tumbled leather covers the majority of the upper, running from the toe box and eyestays through the side panels and heel. The laces, lining, eyelets, midsole, and outsole all follow suit, keeping the palette unified and tight. The leopard print, rendered in brown and black, lands across both Swooshes and wraps around the heel tabs, giving the silhouette its defining detail without overwhelming the rest of the shoe. Brown stitching outlines the printed panels, and matching brown Nike Air branding appears on the tongue labels and insoles. At the heel, black Nike Air embroidery sits directly over the leopard material, adding a layered touch without introducing a new color.
