Nike Full Force Low White Black

Nike's basketball history runs from the 1984 Jordan signing through to being the official on court uniform supplier to the NBA, the WNBA and the G League from 2017, a deal extended for a further twelve years. The Full Force Low draws on the heavy, chunky basketball shapes that sat between those eras, the era of thick leather and wide midsoles rather than lightweight racing foam. This pair runs white with pewter, sail and black, which keeps the bulk of the silhouette but softens it: sail on the base rather than bright white, pewter as a grey mid tone, black used sparingly for definition. It is the version of a big basketball shoe you can wear without announcing it.
