Forever changing the landscape of athletic footwear with its visible air unit, the Air Max 1 remains as relevant today as it was at its inception in 1987. The OG model in the Air Max series still holds its own and will remain a major part of the release calendar for Nike. For its latest makeover, the silhouette gets a premium build with a patchwork-like design and earthy hues to celebrate King's Day.
In the Netherlands, King's Day is typically celebrated on April 27 and marks the birth of King Willem-Alexander. On the day, festivals, events, and even a nationwide flea market occur, with many sporting the country's national color of orange. To pay homage to this event, the Air Max 1 gets a striking combination of cacao wow and bright mandarin, presenting a rich visual texture that is both bold and sophisticated.
