Jasmine Tang Whether it’s new design elements or entirely new models, the Nike Air Max line has long been pushing the boundaries of innovation. Thus, the upcoming Spring 2021 collection will celebrate the line’s heritage of progress by highlighting three key silhouettes—one of them being the brand new, women’s-exclusive Air Max Viva, which will arrive in “Black/Plum” and “Iron Grey” colorways.
The “Plum/Black” pair sees Plum-colored uppers constructed of suedes and nubucks, decorated with intricate stitching details. A camo-like patterned overlay in a matching shade is applied near the heel. This same pattern is exhibited under the speckled, chunky black-and-grey chunky midsole. The added cushioning in the midsole and exaggerated Air Max Unit in the heel were deliberately incorporated to deliver comfort especially engineered for a women’s foot. Meanwhile, the tongue opts for a black mesh makeup that delivers a hiking aesthetic. Furthering the hiking theme, the Air Max Viva uses a unique lacing system that sees two criss-crossing, heavy-duty tech chord laces in purple and yellow. The “Iron Grey” colorway demonstrates all the aforementioned features, but in a black and grey color scheme and a white and black speckled midsole.
Expect to see the Air Max Viva at Nike.com and the retailers listed below this month with a retail price tag of $140.
