He’d already gotten his feet wet designing the Air Jordan 3 in ’84, complete with the first-ever visible Air-Sole unit. But Nike designer Tinker Hatfield knew he wanted to do more with this revolutionary cushioning, so he created a sneaker with Air as the focus. That was in 1987, but the Nike Air Max 1 remains timeless to this day.
The latest launch of this silhouette takes a distinctly pared-down approach to its colorway. The women’s Nike Air Max 1 goes for a light-handed touchdown with a “Football Grey” makeup that includes whispers of blue-grey and icy platinum incorporated throughout. The latest release of the Air Max 1 features white, black, Platinum Tint, Sail and Football Grey, and arrives at Hibbett | City Gear beginning February 8.
