Before we take a detailed look at the Nike Air Force 1 Low Purple Skeleton Halloween, let me walk you through a bit of history and see how profitable the AF1 still is.

Air Force 1 | History & Resale

The Air force 1 Low has long been one of Nike’s most bestselling sneakers and has accumulated the Swoosh tens of Billions of dollars in revenue since releasing in 1986. Possibly being one of their most profitable sneakers to date.

Due to its popularity, there have been a plethora of new colorways, sometimes even close to 10 a month yet they still manage to sell out quickly in some cases.

However, because of the high volume of releases, resale isn’t always the best unless it’s for special occasions such as Nike’s Christmas specials, St. Patrick’s Day Specials, and of course, Halloween specials.

This Halloween, the Swoosh is also set to drop a Halloween-themed Air force 1 Experimental which might yield some profits if sold at the right time.

Last Halloween, Nike released an Air Force 1 Low Orange Skeleton, a Black Skeleton in 2019, and the OG Skeleton AF1 that dropped back in 2018.

To better estimate resale for the Air Force 1 Low Purple Skeleton, let’s head on over to StockX.
