From the boardrooms of Nike HQ to the streets of Baltimore, this is the epic second half of the Air Force 1 saga—the moment that transformed a sneaker into a $28 billion empire.
Nike thought they were done with the Air Force 1—but Baltimore wasn’t. After the Three Amigos convinced Nike to give the sneaker one last shot, the real challenge began: making the Color of the Month Club a success. With everything on the line, local sneakerheads, hustlers, and hip-hop heads turned every release into an event, proving that this wasn’t just a shoe—it was a movement.
Meanwhile, Jamal, the kid who started this journey dreaming of a pair, finds himself at the heart of the sneaker revolution. But success comes with a price—rivalries heat up, friendships are tested, and even his biggest idol turns into his biggest critic.
