Two giants in the industry, Supreme and Nike, teamed up to release four colourways of the legendary Air Max 1 silhouette. In my latest review, I’m breaking down two of those four – “Varsity Purple” and “Speed Yellow”. Built using a leather upper, it includes other details like a snakeskin patterned Swoosh and Supreme branding. Tune into my review for a closer look!
Amsterdam-based boutique, Patta, celebrated their 20th anniversary by bringing back one of the most beloved Air Max 1s of all time earlier this month! The “Chlorophyll” Air Max 1 originally released in 2009 to honour Patta’s then-fifth anniversary. 15 years later, and it’s finally returned true to OG form.
Today I’m reviewing a pair of the Division Street x Nike Air Max 1, released this past Air Max Day on GOAT, honouring the University of Oregon Ducks. This limited release, only 3000 pairs in existence, feature a premium build with materials like perforated leathers, suedes and iridescent panels. Tune into my video for an in-depth breakdown, and let me know your opinions on this shoe!
Earlier this month Nike dropped a brand new colourway of the Air Max 1. This pair draws inspiration from hot sauce, with a white mesh base, metallic silver “foil” like leather, and speckled red accents on the Swoosh, top eyelets and more. Check out my detailed breakdown of this shoe and see how they are on feet!
Nike’s annual tradition to pay tribute to the legendary Jackie Robinson continued this year with the release of this limited edition Air Max 1 ’86 OG. Crafted using genuine navy blue coloured leather, along with synthetic overlays of sail and gold touches, these are a premium version of the beloved Air Max 1 model. Watch my review and let me know if this was a cop or a drop for you!
Following the release of the OG “White / Blue” colourway, Nike released this special edition colourway on Air Max Day, 3.26, inspired by a similar release from a decade ago. Slapping on volt hits on the midsole and tongue, these also have 3.26 branding on the tongue – ensuring they stand out on the streets. Check out my video to learn more about this pair and to see how they are on feet!
After releasing the original “White / Red” version of the Air Max 1 last year in “Big Bubble” form, today, Nike dropped its counterpart – the “White / Royal Blue” pair! Built the same, it features white mesh, blue and grey synthetic suede layers, and an extra large Air Bubble in the heel as a nod to the original 1986 production that was quickly scrapped for its 1987 version! Did anyone else pick these up today?
Continuing on with releasing 2.0 versions of iconic Air Max 1s, Nike recently brought back the “Keep Rippin, Stop Slippin” Air Max 1, originally from 2008. Looking totally different from the OGs, this 2.0 version features hairy black suede, smooth leather, and deep red coloured hits on the lining and embroidery. Is this a worthy sequel to the ’08 classic? Leave your thoughts below!
UK retailer Size?, recently dropped their exclusive design of the Nike Air Max 1. Featuring earthy tones in a mix of materials like hairy suede, and hemp, these were a must for many Air Max fans around the globe. Check out my review to get a closer look and to see how they look on feet!
