Presented with the choice of forty different shoes, Odell Beckham Jr. quickly gravitated to the Special Field Air Force 1 Mid, a sneaker as bodacious and eye catching as the receiver himself. It reminded Odell of the moment before his rookie year when he moved to New York City and looked down at the Manhattan streets for the first time. Accustomed to the sprawling bayous of Louisiana, OBJ was struck by the bright yellow color of taxi cabs snaking through the otherwise gray city. The latest SF AF-1 Mid colorway pays homage to Odell’s first “Welcome to New York” moment with a taxi-yellow colorway that stands out on the street, even from several stories up.
