Born in 1987, the Nike Air Max line is one of footwear's most-recognizable series of styles. Iconic designs meant for running and other disciplines have appeared over the last nearly-40 years, but the streets have made sneakers with large visible Air bubbles staples in the lifestyle space.
The modern era has seen the Swoosh experiment with Air Max technology, reimagining its application and presentation through innovative ways that weren't possible in the late '80s. Nike's ongoing pursuit of better and insatiable curiosity has led to designs like the newly-launched Air Max Metro, an everyday, budget-friendly shoe that delivers top-quality for just $130.
At quick glance, the sneaker is unquestionably an Air Max: breathable mesh bases and sporty synthetic panels come together across the upper, while the sole unit combines comfortable Cushlon 3.0 foam (the same cushioning found in the Sabrina 4 and Ja 4 basketball shoes), an Air Max unit that follows similar design lines to the widely-praised Pegasus Premium runner, and robust rubber traction ready for hundreds of walking miles.
Browse and shop the Air Max Metro below, and keep an eye on Nike.com as more colorways for Men, Women, and Kids are expected to be added throughout the end of the year.
