As we wait eagerly for the Big Bubble’s return on Air Max Day, Nike has delighted us with drip-fed leaks of accompanying Air Max 1 designs for the following season of spring. The next to appear joins a matching Air Force 1 Low in a jumble of textiles, materials, and prints ranging from animal print to pastels to traditional Asian satin.
This new lades-exclusive release is dished up in multi-color, multi-material, and multi-print tooling, resulting in one avant-garde Air Max 1. Set atop an aged-look sole unit, the pair proffers oriental-style embroidered satin upper, midfoot of pink, with corduroy mudguards and mossy green suedes sitting below. Volt laces and dubraes are striking — but not as obnoxious ad the bold black suede Swoosh at the midfoot and leopard print collar. The Animalia aesthetic continues on the insoles and extra laces, with both sporting zebra prints to complete the design.
Though a release date for this brand-new Nike Air Max 1 is not yet known, it is expected soon. Until more details emerge, you can enjoy a first look at the pair below, and as always, keep your eyes glued to our official Twitter account for further updates.
