 Nike Air Max 1   Moon Landing 40th Anniversary

Nike often refers to pop culture in its limited edition releases, but this one honours the 40th anniversary of one of the most inspirational achievements in the entire history of mankind.  Whether they’re a ‘small step for mankind’ is more dependent upon your own stride, but there’s no question that this new pair of Nike Air Max 1s does a nifty job of achieving its lunar landing theme.  The upper is comprised of mostly black leather with touches of quilted black nylon and metallic silver accents.  A strip of the upper directly above the midsole is embossed with a crater-like pattern and a moon boot-evoking silver midsole completes the vibe.  While we’re uncertain as to the exact date, the moon landing was July 21, 1969, so we expect them during the summer.  Stay tuned to Sneaker News for updates.  via Colmilludo
