The Mayumi Yamase x Nike Air Force 1 Flyleather 'Earth Day' (2021) reflects Nike’s ongoing commitment to sustainable innovation, merging contemporary artistry with one of the brand’s most iconic silhouettes. Designed in collaboration with Japanese artist Mayumi Yamase as part of Nike’s 2021 Earth Day collection, the sneaker reimagines the timeless Air Force 1 through an environmentally conscious lens. The release showcases Yamase’s playful, nature-inspired aesthetic while incorporating Nike Flyleather technology, a material constructed with at least 50% recycled leather fiber, significantly reducing waste compared to traditional leather production. By combining expressive design with sustainability-focused craftsmanship, the collaboration stands as a modern interpretation of the Air Force 1 that resonates with both sneaker collectors and environmentally conscious consumers.
Overview
The Mayumi Yamase x Nike Air Force 1 Flyleather 'Earth Day' (2021) features a clean white Flyleather upper accented by hand-drawn illustrations and embroidered graphics inspired by the natural world. Soft pastel tones appear throughout the sneaker, with playful floral motifs and whimsical detailing reflecting Yamase’s signature artistic style. The classic Nike Swoosh remains prominent along the side panels, while custom branding on the tongue and insoles reinforces the collaborative identity of the release. Maintaining the Air Force 1’s legendary low-top construction, the sneaker also includes a durable rubber outsole and Nike Air cushioning for everyday comfort. Released as part of Nike’s broader Move to Zero sustainability initiative, the sneaker balances environmental responsibility with collectible design appeal.
