Air Force One isn't just a term that applies to the President of the United States; it's one of the most popular shoe styles ever to come out of the Nike vault. What makes Air Force Ones so unique, such a big hit with shoe lovers of all kinds? If you thought Air Force One was a plane, you need to be introduced to Air Force Ones, the shoes.

What is it that makes them special? Nike Air Force Ones, released for the first time in 1982, were the very first Nike shoes to use Nike Air technology. This technology has helped set Nike apart from other shoe companies, and today Nike is often regarded as the best makers of all athletic shoes. The cushioned support they provide, the air technology that makes people run faster, jump higher, walk longer is evident in every line of each pair of Nike Air Force Ones.

After all, they have to live up to the name, right? This comfortable, airy technology makes Air Force Ones great-feeling for any casual outing or athletic event. But it's the wide array of styles, colors, and patterns that make Nike Air Forces Ones a must-have. When it comes to shoes, you won't find a better selection.

Air Force Ones (the shoes, not the planes) come in high-tip, mid-top, and low-top designs. In every style, the classic-yet-modern look that Air Force Ones are known for is evident. The sweeping, simple design is one that appeals to many, and Air Force Ones have a tendency to look great with any outfit you might put on.

While style is important, everyone wants their kicks to match their 'fit. If you've got on a great-looking, perfectly matched red and white outfit, you can't put on green and black shoes. That just wouldn't look right. Because everyone wants to look their best (and shoes make that all happen - when you've got the right pair), Nike Air Force Ones come in a huge variety of colors and patterns. Want something neutral? Metallic? Black-on-black, white-on-white, black-on-white? Nike Air Force Ones run the gamut in patterns, colors, and combinations. Whatever you're wearing, there's a pair of Air Force Ones that will match that.

The style, the technology, and the selection is what sets Nike Air Force Ones apart from all other shoes. Why not have the best of all worlds, with a pair of perfectly matched shoes? The huge selection of Nike Air Force Ones makes it possible to find an athletic shoe for every outfit you've got - and what other shoe company can say as much?

So if you though Air Force One was something reserved for the President, you need to take a closer look at Air Force Ones the shoes. You'll be glad you did.
