This Air Max 1 is swimming in suede

Suede steppin.

The crown jewel of Nike’s Air Max series – the first ever to visibly show off that beautiful Air Bubble – has produced some absoleute gems over the years. And like most of them, they fly under the radar.

Classic Gum rubber outsole and chunky whit midsole flex the iconic unit that made the Air Max series the most successful trainer in history. While the navy blue upper comes decked in a mix of luxurious tumbled leather with thick suede overlays Elvis would be proud of. The added jewel Swoosh gives it a modern minimalistic vibe.

These Nike Air Max 1 SCs are available in women’s sizes from select stockists globally. If you can’t find them there (or if you’re big footed like me) you can always make your own similar premium version (without the jewel) on NikeiD.
