The Nike Air Max Pulse Appears in Black and Pure Platinum

During this year's Air Max Day celebrations, Nike Sportswear revealed their newest innovation, the Air Max Pulse, as an extension to the legendary Air Max series that debuted in 1987. The silhouette now presents a striking, contrasting Black and Pure Platinum pairing.

The shoe melds a breathable black mesh structure with a synthetic leather mudguard of bone in striking disposition. Boasting a heel air unit akin to the Air Max 270, the sole unit is split, too, with white forefeet and black backs that continue the pair’s bold two-tone aesthetic. Further embellishments include a revamped Air Max logo embellishing the tongues, insoles, and embossed heels, while the presence of multiple Swoosh logos throughout the shoe completes the design.

Take a look at the official images below, and stay tuned for the Nike Air Max Pulse "Black/Pure Platinum" release on May 15th at select Nike Sportswear retailers and Nike.com. The retail price is set at $150 USD.
