Jovani Hernandez Supreme‘s penchant for less-heralded, often obscure NIKE, Inc. silhouettes has been well-documented over the course of the skate brand’s 27-year history. For its Spring/Summer 2021 footwear collaboration, which releases on Thursday, May 6th, Supreme has picked the Nike Air Max 96 out of the archives, outfitting it in three different colorways.
First teased in mid-August 2020, the forthcoming collaboration reimagines 1996’s flagship Air Max proposition. Teeth-shaped mesh underlays all-throughout the profiles are replaced with completely-transparent paneling, which extends itself to the toe box. The rest of the shoe indulges in one of three tonal takes – black, silver, camouflage – with the most latter option abandoning the military-inspired pattern across its sole unit. As has been the case on other Supreme collaborations, the trio is amply branded with the New York-founded institution’s name: sock-liners visible through the see-through makeup boast the iconic red-and-white logo, as does the top of the tongue. The rest of the tongue features much-subtler nods to the skate brand’s name, while heels apply a reflective finish to their “Supreme” branding.
