March 26th is upon us and within the sneaker world, this can only mean one thing… Air Max Day.
With Nike looking back on the routes of the Air Max 1 with the ‘Big Bubble’ and the experimental nature of creating a shoe with visible air, this Air Max Day we play on that experimental nature with Big Manny. Hosting ‘Lab 86’, we’ll look at the idea of breaking down the components/materials of the AM86 shoe.
Replicated with its OG tooling from ’86 – this nostalgia-packed fit is one for the sneaker buffs. On top, the fit utilises its heritage defining red and grey colour palette that sets complimentary base to its plush suede overlays. White mesh is hosted underneath, Swooshing has been given the velvet treatment, meanwhile four circled Air units are hosted in the midsole to offer unbeatable levels of cushioning – just like the originals. Nike wordmark on the tongue and heel is dubbed in red and rubber soles confirm grippy tread underneath.
Launching in-store and online on Sunday 26th March (Available online from 08:00AM GMT).
