As autumnal hues paint the landscape, Nike embraces the seasonal shift with the latest iteration of the Air Max 1. Tinker Hatfield's trailblazing 1987 design has always held a special place in Nike's lineage, transitioning seamlessly through collaborations, exclusive drops, and special editions.
For this season, the Air Max 1 has opted for a muted palette that perfectly complements fall's subdued tones. The spotlight falls on "Smokey Mauve", a shade that gracefully drapes itself across significant sections of the silhouette. This pale purple suede encircles the lower half of the upper while also finding its place in the form of profile swooshes. In a harmonious continuation, branding elements, both on the tongue label and spine, bask in the "Smokey Mauve" glow, paying tribute to the original Air Max's enduring legacy.
While the midsoles lean towards a more restrained aesthetic, glancing at the soles reveals the waffle-patterned traction echoing the upper's contrasting elements.
