The 2007 release of the atmos x Nike Air Max 1 is currently one of the more sought-after Air Max 1s in history, leaping off the insanely popular “Safari” and “Viotech” versions that the Japanese retailer crafted years prior. What makes this sample a interesting find is that the label on the tongue notes these as a promo sample made for the Summer 2011 season – four years after the initial release. A quick examination of this sample version doesn’t reveal any discrepancies from the released version, so the question remains: Why was this recreated in 2011? Was a wider retail release in the works, or did Nike make these for a VIP who happens to wear a size 13? This 2011 Promo Sample of the atmos x Air Max 1 is definitely a head-scratcher, so let us know what your opinions and see what the asking price was in this ended listing by sneaker_vault_23 on eBay.

French denim masters A.P.C. and Nike Sportswear go way back. These two labels have partnered for several collaborations over the years, including 2012′s Nike Dunk Highs and Air Max 1s. They follow a similar approach this year, applying minimalist colorways in premium materials to these same iconic 1980s silhouettes. For the Dunk High, black and Hay suedes ride gum rubber outsoles. AM1 is presented as Air Maxim 1 in traditional suede and mesh instead of the Flywire that distinguished earlier Maxims, but there’s no confusion about how dope the low-key black and white colorways turned out. Check out all four APC x NSW 2013 designs after the jump and stick with Sneaker News for release info because they’re out now at A.P.C.’s Hong Kong stores.

Back in February, Sneaker News previewed three Nike Air Max 1 Premium colorways that ended up hitting in the first week of March. That trio utilized denim twill uppers and smartly chosen accent colors, and apparently had a younger sibling come along last week. This new style for the summer season has a similar impact in Cool Grey with white Swoosh/midsole and the red hot (or more orange-ish, as the case may be) Total Crimson shade sandwiching the shoe via sockliner and outsole. Check them out up close after the jump, then find your twill Air Max 1 PRM at Premier.

Nike iD was a convenient way to get your own 1-of-1 sneakers without having to look for a proper sneaker customizer, and even today, with such a broad library of available footwear models to customize to your own liking, Nike iD has become more popular than ever. Even sneaker customizers have taken advantage of iD offerings, like with this “Stash” inspiration completed by Dank Customs. Using a pair he created on Nike iD, Dank added a few grey panels, speckling, new laces, and a tongue label from the Air Max 90 “Laser Blue” – a rather efficient way to create a banger of a custom. More below, so take a look and let us know what special iDs you have cooked up in your closet!

Nike Sportswear is among the leaders in elevating the ‘tonal’ look to trend royalty status. Here’s a perfect example of why they should keep on rolling, because the Nike Air Max 1 would look superb in a whole rainbow of suede styles like this. Here we have a downright regal mix of purple shades that is not only carefully selected, but also arranged in just the right way so as to amplify Tinker Hatfield’s familiar genius. An AM1 answer to all those EXT drops that’ve been so popular of late, you can see more of the purple suede Air Max 1 below as we wait for a release date.

It was a little over two weeks ago that Sneaker News alerted you to a new Nike Air Max 1 Essential in white, grey, black and yellow. It’s an accessible colorway that has a summer sunshine pop, and apparently one so perfect for the warm weather months that Nike Sportswear will take another crack at it rather quickly. Strip out the black, mix up the blocking so yellow takes center stage on the mudguard and you’ve got a result that’s proof of why both should exist even if close on paper. Let us know how this style compares to the April drop and stick be sure to check back with us for release info on this grey/yellow Air Max 1 Essential.
