Nike Air Force 1 DNA vs Nike Air Force 1 Red Bark

Completely detached from hype models like the Travis Scott Air Force 1 or other iconic variants of the silhouette, the Air Force 1 DNA and the Air Force 1 Red Bark, two particularly strong Air Force 1s, have appeared in the Nike online shop today.

The Nike AF1 1 DNA was already released at Solebox on Saturday and was sold out by the end of the day. Nike joined them this morning with a full size run and 43½ is already in the starting blocks!

In this article, we will briefly introduce you to both models and determine our favourites.

Air Force 1 DNA

The AF1 DNA is definitely one of the strongest versions of the Air Force in recent months. Numerous details such as the material mix, the embossing on the shaft, the eye-catching Swoosh and the printed insoles make this a really damn good shoe. Add to that the colourway - white upper on separate soles - and you have another iconic model from the Air Force family.

Air Force 1 Red Bark

The new AF1 1 Red Bark is also quite impressive. The upper material in the reptile look is certainly particularly striking with this colourway. Coupled with the warm earth tones and the black outsole, it is certainly something for the dark days, which are actually slowly disappearing again. Nevertheless an absolute board if you like the look of the upper. Many people are allergic to the animal and reptile look...

Our conclusion:

The Air Force 1 in All White has always been the classic Air Force silhouette. So it's kind of logical that the Air Force 1 DNA came out on top right from the start. But the details already described, which somehow always pull among sneakerheads, are really unique and beautiful to look at. So we at Team Dead Stock agree: The DNA emerges from this duel as the clear winner. Even if the Air Force 1 Red Bark is a damn good shoe. Doubtless!
