Last November, Nike unveiled its latest innovation in the Air Max series, which marked a first for the sportswear giant — its first fully 3D-printed sneaker, the Air Max 1000. Around 1,000 lucky individuals (this author included) were able to secure the red colorway of the sneaker, and pairs have finally arrived after a seven-month wait. And while we’re still awaiting release info for the Oatmeal colorway, those in Paris, France, will have an opportunity to get another rendition of the sneaker.
Posted by French-based sneaker page Sneakerologue, the Air Max 1000 Paris Exclusive was spotted on the feet of fashion influencer Drew Joiner at Nike’s Breaking4 event. Zellerfeld manufactures the sneaker in Germany, which comes fully 3D-printed, with this particular pair coated entirely in a light blue hue. Design inspiration came from the Air Max 1, though it’s undergone a makeover that reimagines what the model would have looked like if designed in the distant future.
