In the early 2000s, Nike came out with a fictional basketball team called the Roswell Raygun's and as you can imagine from the name, the mascot was an alien creature with a raygun in its hand. This black, yellow, and orange fictional team appeared on the Nike SB Dunk Low back in 2005 and last year, the Beaverton brand brought it back for two new pairs of the Dunk Low.
According to House Of Heat, it appears as though the "Raygun" aesthetic will be making a huge comeback in 2021 except this time on the Nike Air Force 1 Low. The Air Force 1 is one of the most iconic sneakers of all-time so it would only make sense that Nike would do something like this. In the photoshop rendering below, you can see that the toe box, tongue, and midsole is black while the side panels are orange and yellow. From there, we even have the Raygun logo on the back panel near the heal.
While it is believed these will drop in 2021, there is no official release date as of right now. With this in mind, stay tuned for any updates as we will be sure to bring them to you.
