Available Now // The Air Max 98 Appears in a Minimal “Vast Grey” Colorway
Next up for the 90s icon:
The Air Max 98 has seen quite the return to favor since its reissue early last year and has since established itself as a streetwear staple. It’s similarity to its predecessor has played a big part in its success, but so has it’s increased maximal design language, which lends itself to a wide array of color blocking options. While the majority of the drops we’ve seen so far lean toward the maximal end of the spectrum, this next-up “Vast Grey” offering reverts back to basic blocking and the use of tonal uppers to keep it ultra-minimal.
Split into two sections, dark below and light above the mudguard, the pair brings in bold blacks and dark greys underfoot, inside the Air unit and across the textured leather lower overlay. It encases an upper consisting of almost all “Vast Grey,” from the leather overlays to the mesh upper, to the lining and heel pulls, the only deviation is the subtle use of white embroidery, which even appears — at first glance — to be tonal grey
A release date for this minimally-blocked Air Max 98 is yet to be announced, but with official images surfacing, along with retailers like Noir Fonce adding these to their ‘Coming Soon’ pages, you can expect a release to be right around the corner.
