Nike Air Force 1 ’01 Triple White Returns This Summer

Nike is reviving the 2001 Air Force 1 shape this summer, and the first release comes in classic triple white. The Air Force 1 has seen countless iterations since its 1982 debut, with Nike designating different versions by the year they were introduced. The 2001 shape has become a collector favorite for its specific proportions and construction, distinguishing it from later versions like the more widely available 2007 build that’s still in regular rotation.

This return to the ’01 construction marks a significant moment for AF1 enthusiasts who have been requesting a full-scale revival of this particular shape for years. Earlier this season, a preview arrived with a collaborative model, signaling that Nike was ready to revisit the design. The triple white colorway serves as the straightforward entry point, featuring an all-white leather build that showcases the subtle differences longtime collectors identify with the superior ’01 construction.

Nike plans to continue this ’01 line through the rest of 2026 with additional collaborative releases, though details remain limited. Current information suggests the triple white version will arrive sometime this summer, though an exact date has not been confirmed. The shoe is expected to retail for $130, though supplies are rumored to be scarce. Given the limited availability, it remains unclear whether this marks a broader reintroduction of the 2001 shape into Nike’s regular rotation or a limited project focused on special editions.
