UK rapper Central Cee brought his perspective to the Nike Air Force 1 Low with a collaborative release that dropped during February 2026. The AF1 has always attracted collaborators from across music and culture, and Central Cee’s take reflected the global reach of both Nike and contemporary UK rap.
The design incorporated elements from Central Cee’s aesthetic and cultural reference points, resulting in an Air Force 1 that felt personal and specific rather than generic. The collaboration signaled Nike’s ongoing investment in UK music as a cultural force worth engaging.
The Central Cee x Nike Air Force 1 Low retailed at $130 and released February 13, 2026 through Nike and select UK and global retailers.
