Sneaker News Air Max 1 fans, the 35th Anniversary is only starting to heat up. While three region-exclusive drops are coming on Air Max Day, the best of the Air Max 1 will be saved for a later date as we get a first look at an Air Max 1 draped in safari print on the midsole and ankle collar. There’s an immediate connection to be made with Japan’s atmos and their legendary 2003 collaboration with Nike, even going as far as mirroring the forefoot mini-Swoosh and the text-less logo at the heel.
This mix of cobblestone, worn blue, and limestone collide to create a truly earthy and natural look befitting the Safari theme, and upon closer inspection the Swoosh logo has a texture akin to that of a wild animal. The toe-box is a soft suede opposed to the mesh used the original design, while the tongue opts for the classic nylon. Still, these are a gem of a general release, and with the Air Max 1 energy growing day by day, these will be a hot pick once they arrive.
Stay tuned for release details and we’ll update you with drop info soon.
