Hybrid shoes will be one of the keynote sneaker memories of the latter half of the decade, and this unreleased hybrid sample combining the Air Force 1 and Air Max 97 in a black colorway. A released version in the classic ‘silver bullet’ colorway was released but this tonal black leather version never made it beyond the cutting room floor. The midsole features a translucent window into the full-length Air Unit synonymous with the Air Max 97, with a tongue featuring the interlocking lace-holes and the Air Max 97 tongue face featuring an oval with a swoosh. So, would you have copped these if they released? Check out the extra shot after the jump and let us know what you think. via soonyou’llunderstand.

needs more '97 if its gonna be a hybrid… prob why nike scrapped
November 29th, 2010 at 9:18 pm
they released something lie this, it was a barkley edition i think but it was an all black Supreme version with a clear air bag. the only difference i can think off top is the toungue. thats prolly why it was scrapped.

….. not really a sick colorway.

if you look this one does have a full airsole. the big clear stripe down the sole is the air

I was falling asleep looking at these, they soooo boring looking
November 30th, 2010 at 2:18 am
also note the full length air max unit

the shoe overall is bland. But this is the Max sole they should be using. the little window on what we get is a pile of…. and has spoilt many a shoe.
And the silver pair samples had the same sole but retails did not. probably why that whole AF/Airmax line didnt sell. samples were much nicer.

exactly you wear these with jeans noone would even know they were different from any other AF1
November 30th, 2010 at 9:32 am
Change the colorway on these, and ditch those tounge loops on the tounge, and these would be a pretty comfy AF-1
