Quick Summary
Nike is leaning into New York's basketball moment with a city-exclusive Air Force 1 Low built in partnership with Sidetalk NYC. The viral media platform is best known for helping turn "Bing Bong" into a rallying cry for Knicks fans, and the collaboration channels that same local energy into a sneaker that feels genuinely tied to the city rather than just themed after it.
The upper arrives in tumbled leather dressed in bright Safety Orange, with Rush Blue landing on the Swooshes, heel tabs, and tongue accents. White midsoles and gum rubber outsoles keep the build rooted in classic Air Force 1 styling. NYC branding appears on the tongues and heels, tying the shoe to a set of companion tees that carry the same orange-and-blue palette. A silver lace dubrae, small forefoot Swoosh, and an extra set of white laces round out the details. Sidetalk's Luke Manley fronted the debut campaign, connecting the release to the online culture that helped define a recent chapter of New York basketball fandom.
The Nike Air Force 1 Low Retro PRM "NYC Knicks" is set to release on May 22nd, 2026 through select retailers, including an in-store launch at All The Right (91-30 Corona Ave, Elmhurst, NY 11373) in Queens, New York, for a retail price of $130.
