Sneaker News showed you a pack of Air Max 1 Premiums over the weekend that only scratched the surface of the camouflage theme in terms of pattern prominence, model variety and international shoutouts. This new Nike Air Max camouflage ten-pack features five each for Germany, France, Japan, United Kingdom and a fifth nation to be named later. The spread including two AM1s, two Nike Air Max 90s, an Air Classic BW, an Air 180, two AM95s and a single 97 is the largest single pack from the signature Swoosh running series we’ve seen since the 2010 Air Attack Pack; which of the styles made a strong first impression on you?

Camouflage print may be slowly receding from the massive peak it enjoyed a few months back, but get ready to get pulled back in by one of the sickest Air Max 97s we’ve ever seen. Featuring Italian Camouflage print on the upper of this seamless upper, the Nike Air Max 97 “Italian Camouflage” captures that amazing militarism appeal with the tonal offering of the graphic – the upper, midsole, tongue, and even the lining. Peer into the insides and you’ll see the Italian flag stitched on the insole as well, but look on the exterior because the shoebox features Camo print as well! Slam Jam is calling these an exclusive to their store and very limited sizes are available now at Slam Jam, so check out the gallery and we’ll let you know if these ever pop up at other retailers.

Air Max enthusiasts have zeroed in on the Milan Collection with emphasis because of the nice suede materials used on the uppers. Of the Milan bunch, this suede Air Max 97 deserves some special notice because we’ve never really seen the Nike Air Max 97 built up with these types of lux materials (which reminds us of the Air Max 97 Lux from a few years back). With a tonal grey suede and a nice pop of Cyber green on the outsole, this bullet-train inspired design should have Air Max fans darting to retailers. Size? has them available now so check the details below and stay tuned for more updates on the Nike Air Max “HomeTurf” Collection.

Engineered Mesh is being widely used as a replacement for older materials as an upgrade in breathability and lightness, but what if Mesh is replacing…mesh? The original Air Max 97 already featured the light and airy mesh upper between the “tracks” on the upper, but Engineered Mesh not only preserves that advantage, but also gives it a stunning visual appeal with the non-uniform pattern. Throw in the orange-to-yellow “Sunrise” gradient and you have a pretty snazzy pair of Nike Air Max 97 EM runners that stand out well in the stunning Air Max “Sunrise” Pack”. Additional angles are below, so take a look and stay tuned to Sneaker News for release updates.

The Nike Air Max “Beaches of Rio” Pack couldn’t have arrived at a better time, because some cities are still experiencing Winter weather! We’d all like to hit the legendary shoreline in Brazil, but for those who can’t quite make it that far this Summer season, the great quartet of Air Max releases should be good enough. The Nike Air Max 97 EM is indeed part of that set, with this great remix of blue, orange, and green tones adding to the festive beach vibe. We’ll let you know when these start hitting U.S. retailers, so in the meantime, check out the additional angles below.
