Nike Air Force 1

Bruce Kilgore's 1982 Nike Air Force 1 became a hip-hop cornerstone, selling 12 million pairs annually by the 2000s. Its all-white low remains endlessly relevant, with a 30% higher resale value than the average sneaker. It surpasses #4 in modern versatility, but its $100 retail price is 50% more than the Converse Chuck Taylor.
