NIGO x J-Hope Air Force 1 ’01 “Burnt Sunrise”: what is reported, and how to treat the date
A three-way Air Force 1 Low ’01 is circulating with style code IO8766-800. Reports point to a Nike drop; the listed catalogue date does not match, so treat timing as provisional until Nike confirms.
Not confirmedThis has not been announced by the brand. We publish it as a rumour, not as a fact, and will update the page if it is confirmed.
A NIGO, J-Hope and Nike Air Force 1 Low ’01 nicknamed “Burnt Sunrise” is being reported as a first sneaker project between the designer and the musician. The pair is identified as IO8766-800. Shoppers should treat the on-sale date as unconfirmed: published reports suggest 22 October 2026, while the catalogue lists 5 December 2026.
What the reports say versus the catalogue date
Public write-ups name the silhouette as the Air Force 1 ’01, not a later cut, and assign SKU IO8766-800. They also say Nike, NIGO and J-Hope are linked on the project. That is still reported information, not a Nike product page we can cite here.
Until Nike posts the drop, keep both dates in view. Reports put a Nike release on 22 October 2026. The catalogue entry for the same code uses 5 December 2026. Either could move; neither should be treated as locked.
If you are planning around October lists, park this pair as expected rather than confirmed. Check Nike closer to both dates instead of assuming the first figure will hold.
Design and collaboration context
Reports describe the classic ’01 panel layout kept intact, with a warm multi-tone upper that can shift in the light. They list part of the colourway as Burnt Sunrise with metallic gold and taupe. The full catalogue colourway is Burnt Sunrise/Metallic Gold/Taupe/Chlorine Blue/Arctic Punch/Sail.
A custom graphic is reported on the heel tab in place of the usual Nike Air mark. That detail is not independently confirmed here. If you want a plain-language map of how Air Force 1 Low names and tags usually work, see what the name carries.
The same reports say the shoe was first seen on foot at the Human Made flagship in Tokyo, and that NIGO and J-Hope had already worked on a HUMAN HOPE collection through Human Made in 2025. Treat that as background from coverage, not as a Nike statement on this SKU.
Where to try to buy, and what to watch
Coverage points shoppers to Nike as the place to buy. That is reported, not a live SNKRS listing we can verify in this piece. Use IO8766-800 when you search, because colour nicknames travel faster than codes.
Watch for a Nike confirmation that settles the date conflict. Until then, October 22 is reported and December 5 is the catalogue listing. Do not assume regional windows from either figure.
If the pair lands on a crowded October calendar, compare it against other dated drops rather than treating this collab as a fixed appointment. Keep alerts on the code, not only the “Burnt Sunrise” nickname.
