Available Now // Nike Air Max 2021 “Obsidian”

Select Model

Although Nike Air Max technology is no longer exclusive to runners, the cushioning remains synonymous with its titular line of trainers. From Tinker Hatfield’s iconic Air Max 1 in 1987, the annual series has grown in shape and stature — as too has the size of the Air units used. For this year’s model, we’re getting something bolder again, with the new Nike Air Max 2021 donning a hollowed-out rear cage and bulbous Air support in the rear — and that’s not the least of it!

It’s breathable, the mixed-material upper hosts differing weaves, textures, and tack-stitch overlays, while its vamp and tongue feature a hot mess of loose overlays and utilitarian pulls. The next pair to appear — here in a Seahawks-friendly Obsidian and Lime Glow — aims to juxtapose the design with simplicity by toning down the audacious design with mostly tonal blue hues.
