Victor Victor x Nike Air Force 1 “University Red” Release Info

It’s been a tough year for Nike as a company, with the stock price reflecting those struggles. One of the biggest criticisms the brand draws is the sheer volume of collaborations it puts out, but that isn’t slowing them down as they look to bounce back. Today, Nike unveils the upcoming Victor Victor x Nike Air Force 1 Low ’01 “University Red.” Some may question the collaboration and ask, who is Victor Victor? His real name is Steven Victor, and he’s got a stacked resume that includes Chief Creative Officer for Kanye West’s GOOD Music, and Senior Vice President and Head of A&R at Universal Music Group and Def Jam Recordings, among other roles.

With that resume in place, Nike has now joined forces with him on a multi-shoe collection, kicking things off with this University Red Air Force 1 Low ’01. It’s a clean red shoe with touches of white, honoring New York City’s 646 area code with a limited run of exactly that many pairs. Victor Victor’s Tosa dog logo is stitched on the lateral heel, with custom outsoles and branding on the insoles as well. This drop continues a busy year for the Air Force 1 line, following recent standouts like the Kobe Bryant x Nike Air Force 1 Low Protro “Dodgers” and “Denim” editions. If you’re a fan of a clean red Air Force 1, or a fan of Victor Victor, this one’s for you.
