With the pre-Air Max range of Nike Sportswear classic runners, you’re looking back on a time prior to the existence or application of technical materials we’ve come to take for granted, so most are built in time tested stuff like leather, suede and nylon. And while suede and mesh is a combo old school-oriented sneakerheads seek in their new selections, it’s somewhat rare to see an item the vintage of the Nike Challenger done entirely in the nappy look. These crank up the lifestyle appeal thanks to the newly unified upper, a navy base that looks great with grey and white accents, all atop a gum brown bottom. These just arrived at SNS, so click through to have a look and let us know if these can compete with the strong run of Air Max 1s we’ve seen this spring.
