Where to Buy the Wear-Away Nike Air Max 1 “Asparagus”

Select Model

As we head towards the crescendo of the Air Max 90 and Air Max 95’s anniversary celebrations, it has become more apparent that Nike has been shifting its focus back towards other icons of the line in preparation for the year ahead. Notably, it has been the Air Max 1 that has been a supplementary focal point for the Swoosh, with collaboration from DENHAM and a trio of Powerwall-inspired Retros providing a solid lead-in to 2021. The pairs just mentioned are maximal in comparison to this barely-there White/Asparagus Air Max 1 which is dressed in neutral hits of a bleached blue and white.

The barebones aesthetic is carried over to the omission of the Swoosh overlay in favor of a debossed effect, while a new logo lock-up, one that sees the Swoosh cut down the middle and split-toned with hits of the titular green. But there’s more to it than that — even though the official images don’t quite show it. The aforementioned blue overlays appear to possess a wear-away attribute, which, going by the pair’s accompanying removal cloth, will reveal overlays colored in the titular Asparagus Green.

Grab an official look at the wear-away Air Max 1 “Asparagus” here below, and look for these to hit select stores around the globe alongside the accompanying “Tawny” colorway on December 19th, 2020.
