Nike’s Air Max lineage has many momentous moments; the Air Max 1’s debut in 1987 to the ultra-high Air Max 720 just last year — with a lot more filling in the 30-odd years in between. For Air Max heads, though, the mid-2000s was a period that will forever be one of its finest. 2006 saw the brand introduce it’s first toe-to-heel Air unit, the Air Max 360, which in itself was a huge deal. Of course, Nike celebrated their journey from it’s first exposed Air to full-length features in epic proportions with the famed “Powerwall” collection. Mythical in nature, a 56-pair pack in eight different themes is something modern-day sneakerheads could only dream of — but it did happen, and boy was it glorious. Amongst the thematic was the famed “History Of Air”, which saw the re-release of several iconic Air Max models in their OG colorways, including the Air Max 1, Air Max 97 “Silver Bullet”, Air Max 95 “Neon” and the then-new Air Max 360 (which was reintroduced as a VaporMax earlier this year.) Naturally, with such a large collection, many pairs ended up making their way to outlets — but many were limited and hard to come by. One of those that managed to hold value over the years was the Powerwall’s Air Max 1 “Lemonade”, which are currently available for well over $3k on StockX. Prices may come down a little now with the word that the pair is set to re-release alongside a new “Limeade” edition this Summer.
According to sneaker sleuth@py_rates_, the “Lemonade” Air Max 1 is set for a return this Summer alongside an all-new and inverted “Limeade” pair — and now a third “Pink Lemonade” release. Exciting in itself, but this news could indicate further releases from the famed pack are on the horizon. But before we get oo excited about the possibilities, we’re sure that more information and updates will be coming for this pack soon — so keep it locked on our official Twitter account for more details.
