The Nike Air Max 1 has remained an iconic staple within sneaker culture for decades. 2022 marked the 35th Anniversary of this revered silhouette, and its significance grew with remarkable iterations in the following years. Now, as we await colorways to end 2023, including the Keep Rippin' Stop Slippin' 2.0, Nike brings an avant-garde twist to this classic for 2024: the Easter Celebration edition.
This distinct rendition of the Air Max 1 is a visual feast for sneaker fans. The mudguard is clothed in a plush, dark green hairy suede, setting a tone of elegance. This look is sharply contrasted by a honeydew green suede Swoosh, boldly gracing the cracked leather midfoot panel, which stands out in its soft pink hue. This tactile cracked texture cascades to the vamp and heel overlay, amplifying the shoe's character.
As seen on the laces, tongue, and sockliner, adobe undertones seamlessly blend with the overall design. Splashes of golden hue on the TPU eyelet and multi-colored embroidery on the Nike Air branding - which cleverly splits the "AIR" text into shades of green, adobe, and dark green - add an element of surprise. The shoe's foundational layer doesn't disappoint either; it boasts a white foam midsole with a light green Air unit, speckled patterns, and a multi-colored rubber outsole, completing the ensemble.
The Nike Air Max 1 Easter Celebration will release on March 29, 2024, via Nike, SNKRS, and select retailers online and in-store. Available in men’s sizing, the retail price is set at $160.
