British designer Samuel Ross has confirmed that the much-coveted collaborative A-COLD-WALL* x NikeLab Air Force 1 kicks will be officially released this Saturday (October 21).

The customised kicks were first seen back in January when Ross was spotted wearing them. At the time, he hinted the trainer was a one off, unlikely to see the light of day. That has turned out not to be the case with the shoe dropping later this week. 

In a recent conversation with Nike, Ross explained: "I didn't want to overwhelm people with information. I wanted to take things away and move things around so as to be very sensitive to the individual elements of the original design. Having these really specific tones allows the shoe to breathe, and it feels very minimalistic as a result, very reflective, of course, of what Cold Wall stands for."

The sneaker will drop exclusively via an A-COLD-WALL* pop-up in London. Head here for more details on how to cop your pair.
