atmos x Nike Air Max 1 “Elephant Print” – 2011 Promo Sample

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.
