For the past eight years, Nike's popular outpost at 21 Mercer St. in New York City has been neighbors with custom denim house, 3x1. Today, the Swoosh has announced a full fledged collaboration with its friendly SoHo neighbor.

Three pairs of the Air Force 1 Low have been dressed in different washes of 3x1's raw selvedge denim developed in Los Angeles: black, stonewash blue, and raw indigo. Each respective wash covers the entire upper of each colorway with contrasting washes being used on the eyestay, Swooshes, tongue, and heel tab. The fabrics, crafted in Japan's Kuroki mill, also feature a Bowerman orange selvedge ID as a nod to the Nike co-founder. The color is revealed on the left shoe of each pair via 3x1's signature "back pocket reveal." 

Each color scheme is completed with co-branding on the insoles and sits atop a cream-colored midsole. The 3x1 x Nike Air Force 1 Low collection arrives at Nike SNKRS, 3x1 (15 Mercer St.), and other select retailers on May 24 for $130 each. Get a closer look at each pair below.
