Welcome to the Nike Air Foamposite One “DMV”

Nike’s roots in Washington, D.C., Maryland, and Virginia run deep. Known colloquially as the DMV, this cluster of east-coast States is at least partially responsible for putting some now-ubiquitous Nike silhouettes on the map, including various Nike boots, the Air Force 1, and, of course, the Air Foamposite One. And later this month, the area is getting some well-deserved recognition with the release of its own Nike Air Foamposite One colorway.

Dubbed the “DMV” Air Foamposite One, this colorway stands out with a light pink Foamposite upper, reminiscent of the cherry blossoms that famously bloom in the region every spring. This pastel hue is both striking and subtle, making the sneaker a versatile addition to any collection.

Signature "1-Cent" logos on the heels pay homage to the iconic branding associated with Penny Hardaway, but the most distinctive feature is the "DMV" lettering printed on the pull tabs – a clear homage to the sneaker’s influence in the area. Adding to the theme, the insoles are adorned with a cherry blossom print, tying the entire design together.

Whether you’re from the DMV or not, these are a must-cop. The Nike Air Foamposite One "DMV" will be available on Friday, August 23rd, in-store in men’s and grade-school sizes.
