Nike has recently shown a knack for reinterpreting colorways on other silhouettes. Notably, the UNDEFEATED x Nike Dunk vs AF1 collection, but prior to that, we saw the Swoosh’s Air Max range apply borrowed colorways to countless models — including the just-released Air Max Plus “Air Max 1”. Now, after both the Air Max 90 and Air Max Plus borrowed the OG Air Max BW’s duds, so too has this Nike Air Max 270 “Persian Violet”
With the design lines between the BW and the 270 differing in so many ways, it’s hard to nail the transfer perfectly. However, the connection to the OG BW is undeniable. With an identical color scheme that can not be refuted — and with the sneaker celebrating its 30th anniversary in 2021 — it makes the release of this Nike Air Max 270 “Persian Violet” a perfect tribute to the original Big Window.
A release date for this OG-inspired Nike Air Max 270 “Persian Violet” is yet to be revealed, but with the Air Max BW OG expecting a return next month, you should expect to see these also hit select stores and Nike.com in the coming weeks. Until more news arrives, you can enjoy an official look at the pair here below, and be sure to keep your eyes locked on our official Twitter account for further updates.
