With decades of experience being in the spotlight, we’ve seen many faces of the Batman actor. From teenage heartthrob to ambitious young adult, he’s gone through it all in his various eras. Affleck’s current form might just be his best one yet. Ben Affleck is enjoying the hard-earned profits from a long career, and he’s also giving the fans something new to look forward to with his Nike & Jordan sneakers.

The 51-year-old actor has shown off a newfound love for Nike sneakers. In this year alone, we’ve seen him rock the swoosh far more often than before, and he has owned it. The fits are immaculate, but only a few can make a list compiling his most iconic sneakers worn in recent years. This list has some hard hitters that you can’t miss in your collection, so pay close attention. Here are the best Jordan and Nike sneakers worn by Ben Affleck (in public).

1. Custom “What The Dunkin'” Dunks

Ben Affleck’s Most Iconic Nike & Jordan Sneakers

Everyone loved the Dunkin’ Super Bowl ad starring Ben Affleck, Matt Damon, Tom Brady, Jack Harlow, Jennifer Lopez and Fat Joe, with the first four being dressed in bright orange outfits as the “DunkKings” sponsored by Dunkin’ Donuts. The whole point of the ad was a joke to try and get into J-Lo’s latest album, but it was also a great opportunity to see these stars being goofy and groovy while being sponsored by the donut brand.

The best part of the ad was, obviously, the custom “What The Dunkin'” Nike Dunk Low sneakers that he and the team walked away with. We know that he got to keep them because he was later seen out on a stroll with his son Samuel, sipping an iced coffee while wearing these epic kicks combined with a fittingly dad-like ensemble.

The custom Nike Dunk Lows were made by esteemed custom artists Andrew Chiou and Ant Kai, two artists who are known for making epic sneakers that are one-of-a-kind customs with complex detail and construction.

2. Jordan 4 Retro x Union LA ‘Guava Ice’

Ben Affleck’s Most Iconic Sneakers In 2023

After filming an iconic movie like Air, any rational person would begin to appreciate the Jordan Brand a lot more. In that spirit, Ben Affleck wearing the Jordan 4 Retro sneakers in the Union LA ‘Guava Ice’ colourway is an amazing way to express that love for the brand.

As the second collab between Union and Jordan Brand, the 4’s Guava Ice colourway is a nice change of pace. With a vintage style to it, the sneaker holds a vibrant design that instantly captivates anyone around. Using the classic silhouette of Jordan 4’s was the right move with this collab. It allows for all the colours to stay in the spotlight. The main pull here is the soft pink suede on its upper. Combining that with a yellow Union tab and the woven Air Jordan tag, it’s like this sneaker was intentionally designed to become an instant classic.

3. Nike Air Jordan 1 Low Fragment Design x Travis Scott

Walking through the streets of New York in a pair of Fragment Lows is reserved for the most elite sneakerheads. When you’re an icon at the level of Ben Affleck, doing this is pretty easy. Without showing off too much, the actor styled his fragments with a simple blazer and dark blue pants, allowing the sneakers to get all the attention.

Based on the original 2016 Jordan 1 Fragments, the Travis Scott Fragment Lows are a pair that is highly coveted. The simple colours of royal blue leather combined with black are too much to underrate. Combine that with Cactus Jack’s iconic reverse swoosh and yellowed soles, and we’ve got a sneaker that can easily stand the test of time. As a classic sneaker silhouette, the smoothness and unique identity make them special. On an icon like Ben Affleck, these Nike Air Jordan 1 sneakers are timeless.

4. Travis Scott X Dunk Low Premium QS SB ‘Cactus Jack’

Out of all the Travis Scott Nike collaborations, there’s something about these Dunk Lows that feels like perfection. The Nike PRM branding on this gives them an extra buff in quality control, but that’s not what makes them special. The true charm of these sneakers lies in how they feature a patchwork design mixed with tan suede. These two elements make for an outstanding look that rivals anything you can think of immediately.

On the overlays, you’ll notice that they are designed to fully wear away and eventually reveal an elephant print. Meanwhile, there’s a lateral swoosh on the side that sports a cool pink finish. Ben Affleck managed to pull off the look with an orange plaid shirt that worked well enough against the sneakers’ understated plaid design. It’s a shoe that has a lot of value, and the amount of effort that made the collab possible is also impressive.

5. Nike Air Force 1 Low Travis Scott Cactus Jack

The Travis Scott and Nike Air Force 1 design is a force to be reckoned with. With multiple Air Force collabs, this one is a variant that strays off the conventional path one might expect from a pair of Forces. Instead, Nike’s collaborative effort with Cactus Jack has a twist added in the form of a heavy brass zipper. This zipper adds a new dynamic to the sneaker that makes it feel like something completely new instead of a regular Air Force 1.

Featuring some patchwork and camouflage mixed together, it’s a design that uses a lot of earthy looks to give it the feeling of a day-to-day sneaker, even with a somewhat futuristic design. The Cactus Jack insignia makes a bold display here as it’s placed through the silhouette. There’s also a sail midsole and a gum rubber outsole that helps elevate the whole sneaker.

6. Nike SB Dunk Low “Eire”

"Eire"

As the name suggests, these stunning sneakers are inspired by Ireland and are widely regarded as one of the rarest Nike SB Dunk Low sneakers of all time. The sneakers were first dropped in 2006; Affleck pulled them out recently for a jaunt around town as he sipped his usual iced coffee, paired with a monochromatic outfit and his signature Ray-Ban Aviator sunglasses.

A colourway of “Net Green” is followed by “Deep Orange” and off-white, representing the Irish flag, even featuring an Irish Harp stitched on the lateral heel.

7. Jordan 6 Retro Travis Scott British Khaki

The Jordan 6 Retro sneakers, with a cool beige look that goes with Ben Affleck’s current era, are yet another one of Travis Scott’s collaborations that have left an impression on the iconic actor. It’s also the second sneaker from the Jordan 6 silhouette that we’ve seen. The first version was a 2019 Jordan 6 Travis Scott.

The Air Jordan 6 Retro Travis Scott British Khaki sneaker is made completely from British Khaki suede, a material that seamlessly complements Affleck’s aesthetic. On the upper, you’ll find two cargo pockets. This is a convenient design, but most people won’t use it unless they’ve got something that feels right in that storage spot.

The rest of the design is also amazing, and it features a translucent tongue, heel tab, and an outsole that glows in the dark for a perfect finishing touch.

8. Ben & Jerry’s x Nike SB Dunk Low

Otherwise known as the “Chunky Dunky” colourway, the sneakers that Ben Affleck was recently spotted wearing were part of a Ben & Jerry’s collaboration with Nike that took place back in the spring of 2020. While everyone originally thought that the collaboration was some elaborate April Fools’ joke, it seems that Ben Affleck was on board from the start.

I don’t want to point out an obvious joke about how perfect it is that Ben Affleck was spotted as recently as this year in a pair of “Ben & Jerry’s x Nike SB Dunk Low” sneakers; it seems like low-hanging fruit as far as puns are concerned, but it’s still hilarious in my book.

9. Nike SB Dunk Low Sean Cliver

The Nike SB brand has always been huge for the younger audience. But in recent times, thanks to some amazing collaborations, it’s also made its way into the lens of older sneakerheads. As a part of that population, Ben Affleck has shown a level of stylistic finesse by elegantly rocking the Nike Sean Cliver collab.

This sneaker is made especially for the holidays. It’s a Christmas-themed sneaker, but it’s also understated enough to feel like a regular shoe outside of that holiday. The upper area uses a mix of white tumbled leather and sky-blue suede to create an amazing display that instantly pulls you into a whole new world. However, the highlight here is the gold embroidered Nike logo on the heel. It’s an instant classic that makes them stand out next to other SB Dunks.

10. Jordan 1 Retro Low OG SP Travis Scott Reverse Mocha

A classic in the Travis Scott x Jordan brand collabs, the Reverse Mocha is a must-have for fans of these unique sneakers. If you’re a fan of these sneakers, it’s important to pay homage to one of the most iconic pairs. These sneakers use an off-white palette in a special reverse-style colour blocking. The upper uses a Mocha Duraback base along with white leather overlays. Most importantly, the sneaker has the reverse swooshes here.

Ben Affleck wearing a pair of these sneakers is quite iconic. As one of the main actors who has endured multiple generations of fans, he’s still able to deliver a style that resonates with all members of his audience. The red wings logo at the back is also a great feature here. It’s also embroidered and woven at the tongue, giving it a sharp contrast to the regular design’s neutral looks.

11. Travis Scott x Air Jordan 1 High OG ‘Chicago’

A pair that is extremely difficult to cop in this day and age, Ben Affleck has really shown that he is far ahead of anyone else in the sneaker game by wearing this pair out during his press runs for ‘Air.’ This sneaker is highly coveted, but the hype alone isn’t what makes them special. One thing you have to remember is that the classic Jordan 1 Retro silhouette usually remains untouched in most collabs. Your brand has to be something special in order to play on that classic look.

One iconic spin was the Off-White Jordan 1s, which rose to insurmountable popularity. These Travis Scott joints might not have the same level of fame, but they are still pretty special in the grand scheme of things.

12. Air Jordan 1 Retro Low x Zion Williamson

The Air Jordan 1 Retro Low OG collab with Zion Williamson is a sneaker that feels like it has a lot going on. At first sight, this might be due to the colours or patches, but after a while, you start to notice that they are pretty special in terms of craftsmanship.

They intelligently blend the two styles by using a brown suede toe box combined with beige suede quarter panelling. The brown upper uses overlays in the form of oil-green hues, pale brown, and fossils to beautifully contrast the rest of the design. On the lateral heel of the shoe, you’ll find a stitching voodoo doll, a thematic element that keeps up with the Voodoo branding behind the sneaker.

With a sneaker that had so much going on already, Ben Affleck kept things simple with his outfit and opted for a clean look, leaving the Voodoos to do all the heavy work.

Ben Affleck Loves Nike And Air Jordans

Air (2023)

By now, it should come as no secret that Ben Affleck is a massive fan of sneakers. If that fact were ever to come into question, you need only point out to whoever is arguing with you about the Air movie. Ben Affleck starred in the movie as Phil Knight, the founder of Nike, and directed it. 

He had some amazing talent starring alongside him in the film, namely Matt Damon as Sonny Vaccaro, Jason Bateman as Rob Strasser, Chris Messina as David Falk, Viola Davis as the mother of Michael Jordan, Deloris Jordan, Julius Tennon as James Jordan, Damian Delano Young as Michael Jordan, and Chris Tucker as Howard White.

Not only was the movie about wearing Nike sneakers, but it also highlighted the epic journey of the people involved in making the agreement with Michael Jordan, which both birthed the influential sneaker brand and marked an influential moment in history.

Despite retelling a story that every sneakerhead knows practically off by heart, the movie had a pretty touching reception from fans around the world. On one Subreddit dedicated to discussing movies, a fan summed it up perfectly, saying that the movie was pretty low stakes because it was telling a story that all viewers knew would be a success in the end, but the film still captivated its fans.

ChrisChrisBangBang stated on Reddit that he “was really impressed [with] how engaging & fun they made this movie,” going on to say that it was a great display of Matt Damon and Jason Bateman’s acting while also displaying Ben Affleck’s skills as a director.

The proof is in the pudding that Ben Affleck isn’t just a random celebrity who wears Nike sneakers because an agent or a stylist picks them out for him, but the star clearly has a deep love for the brand that has spanned his career.
