To lace Nike Air Force 1 shoes correctly, follow these steps for the standard method:

1. Start by threading both ends of the lace through the bottom eyelets of the shoe, making sure the laces come from underneath.
2. Cross the laces over the tongue and thread each lace end through the opposite eyelet on the next row up, alternating sides as you move upward.
3. Continue this criss-cross pattern all the way to the top of the shoe.
4. When you reach the top eyelets, thread each lace end through from underneath to the outside.
5. Tuck any excess lace neatly to the side or behind the tongue to keep the look clean

For a loose lacing style, which is popular for comfort and casual wear:

1. Begin similarly by threading the lace ends through the bottom eyelets from underneath.
2. Cross the laces and thread them through the next eyelets, but keep the laces looser and avoid pulling them too tight.
3. When you reach the tongue loop, thread the laces through it to keep the tongue in place.
4. Continue lacing loosely up to the top eyelets.
5. At the top, thread the laces through the eyelets from underneath and adjust the length so the excess lace can be tucked behind the tongue, allowing for easy slip-on and a relaxed fit

These methods ensure your Air Force 1s are laced neatly and stylishly, either tightly or loosely depending on your preference. Videos and tutorials are available for visual guidance if needed.
