Back in 1987, Tinker Hatfield and Nike revolutionized casual running with the debut of the Air Max 1. It was an era-defining moment as the Air Max 1 boldly showcased a visible air bubble at the bottom of the sneaker for the first time, setting the stage for a legacy that would transcend time.
Fast forward to the present, Nike continues to pay homage to the iconic Air Max 1, with a surge of new colorways coming to light for the year ahead, including this new "Pink Rise" rendition.
Here is a contemporary pink hue that graces the Nike Swoosh, Nike Air logos on the tongue and heel, and the toe of the sneaker. Complementing this burst of pink is the matte silver mesh upper and perforated overlay set, marking a further bridge from the silhouette's heritage offerings.
But it's not all modern, with a classic white EVA sole unit and tri-tone rubber outsole rounding out the design — just as the originals did from the mind of Tinker.
Enjoy an official look at Nike Air Max 1 "Pink Rise" below, and expect more updates on the pair's retail release to emerge soon.
