According to Drake fan account <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CkTm3QcpCA7\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@ovodrop<\/a>, the shoes are expected to arrive sometime on 2 December. Before that, here are more early looks of the pair!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-56008\" src=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/31115637\/Layer-2.png\" alt=\"NOCTA x Nike Air Force 1 Low Certified Lover Boy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"699\" srcset=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/31115637\/Layer-2.png 1024w, https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/31115637\/Layer-2-300x205.png 300w, https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/31115637\/Layer-2-768x524.png 768w, https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/31115637\/Layer-2-282x192.png 282w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">[Update 1 Aug] What a time to be alive, we now have better views of the NOCTA x Nike Air Force 1 through the official images released. Much like the namesake&#8217;s Dark Lane Demo Tapes, it retains plenty of familiarity but to a discerning fan, nothing was the same. For awhile, the release was so far gone due to the heart-embossment on the tip and heel being too challenging to produce. But now it seems, is its comeback season.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">There&#8217;re some fine distinctions that breathes more life into this classic like the aforementioned heart-embossment, and the &#8220;Love you forever&#8221; cursive text on the lateral heel; finding room for improvement while maintaining the austere triple-white dresscode.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re reading this, hope it&#8217;s not too late to get your hands on this coveted pair. Another L on SNKRS would sting like a scorpion. No release date has been confirmed but considering the hype surrounding anything related to Drake, we&#8217;re pretty sure you&#8217;d have to stay up on this like the OVO owl. We&#8217;ll give an update once we get word! If you do miss the raffle, you can get it on the SNKRDUNK app, eventually. Thank us later.<\/p>\n<p>Drake fans, did you spot the album and mixtape names imbedded in the update?<\/p>\n<p>Honestly, nevermind. Take care.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-21980 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20104413\/Untitled-9-e1658285982845.webp\" alt=\"LINE\" width=\"1200\" height=\"45\" srcset=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20104413\/Untitled-9-e1658285982845.webp 1200w, https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20104413\/Untitled-9-e1658285982845-300x11.webp 300w, https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20104413\/Untitled-9-e1658285982845-1024x38.webp 1024w, https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20104413\/Untitled-9-e1658285982845-768x29.webp 768w, https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20104413\/Untitled-9-e1658285982845-282x11.webp 282w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/>A special Air Force 1 collaboration celebrating the long-awaited release of Drake&#8217;s latest album!<\/p>\n<p>With a sophisticated sound, sweet voice, and lyrics that sometimes seem to be bared of his heart, &#8220;Drake&#8221; is a charismatic Canadian artist who has created a new wave in the Hip-Hop world. He has been wearing Nike since he was a child, who has been developing &#8220;Air Jordan 8&#8221; and &#8220;Air Jordan 10&#8221; under his own street label, &#8220;OCTOBER&#8217;S VERY OWN aka OVO&#8221;. His brand also boasts an immense influence on street culture, as evidenced by its joint apparel collection &#8220;NOCTA&#8221; with Nike.<\/p>\n<p>The latest release of the Drake&#8217;s album, &#8220;CERTIFIED LOVER BOY,&#8221; has been postponed, but at this time a special model has been leaked to celebrate its release the album. Based on the &#8220;Air Force 1&#8221;, the shoe is dyed in &#8220;White ON White&#8221;, a street staple and one of the most iconic colors. On the midsole, the standard &#8220;AIR&#8221; has been rearranged to read &#8220;LOVE YOU FOREVER&#8221;. The toe and heel grips on the back of the sole have been changed from the standard &#8220;star&#8221; to DRAKE&#8217;s beloved &#8220;heart,&#8221; and other special details have been added while retaining the charm of yesteryear.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/snkrdunkappen.page.link\/5aH1_AppHomepage\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-151763\" src=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/15110324\/Generic-Banner-V1.webp\" alt=\"SNKRDUNK App Banner\" width=\"970\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[Update 16 Apr 2024] Drake&#8217;s crushing it in the ongoing rap beef, but here&#8217;s some even better news!
