The Nike Air Force 1 Low "NYC Rat" Releases October 2026
Quick Summary
- Nike Air Force 1 Low "NYC Rat" drops October 23rd, 2026 for $140 at select retailers.
- Dark Gray leather base pairs with Brown faux fur Swoosh, collar, and laces for textured edge.
- Part of a two-piece pack celebrating New York culture alongside the "MTA MetroCard" colorway.
Nike is leaning into New York City's grittier side with the Air Force 1 Low "NYC Rat," a build that translates one of the city's most infamous symbols into a surprisingly wearable sneaker. The pair is one half of a two-piece Air Force 1 pack, the other being the "MTA MetroCard" colorway, with each shoe drawing from a different corner of New York culture.
Dark gray leather covers the base of the upper, while brown faux fur takes over the Swoosh, collar, and heel for a rougher, more textured look. The laces carry the same fuzzy treatment, keeping the theme consistent without tipping into costume territory. "NYC" branding lands on the tongue, and a small red eye is tucked into the fur at the heel, the most direct nod to the rat theme and easy to miss on first glance. Below, a black midsole pairs with brown "AIR" branding, a muted pink translucent outsole adds a subtle pop of color underfoot, and metallic lace dubrae finish the front of the shoe.
