Nike Air Force 1s are the best-selling sneaker in America, and specific colorways sell above retail. Check Nordstrom Rack, DSW, and Shoe Palace clearance sections for AF1s priced $50-70. The all-white 'Triple White' AF1 always sells for $90-110. Also check Ross and Burlington for random AF1 colorways priced at $35-50 that resell for $70-90. This is the most reliable sneaker to flip because demand never fades.
🚀 First Step
Visit a Nordstrom Rack or Burlington today, check the sneaker clearance section for any Nike Air Force 1s under $60, and scan barcodes with the GOAT app.
