Diehard sneakerheads have long considered the Nike Air Max 1 a work of art, Tinker Hatfield’s first Air Max silhouette rising to icon status since its debut nearly forty years ago. Now with eyes towards Air Max Day on March 26th, Nike once again revisits the model’s OG 1986 cut with a “Museum Masterpiece” celebrating the shoe’s creator and transcendent cultural impact.
Abstract impressionism takes over the entire upper of the shoe, calling in marbled, multicolored leather to produce a museum-worthy look packed with texture. The theme then extends down into the midsole with more paint treatments against a white base, complete with the 86′ model’s hallmark big bubble air unit. Insole typography makes the design theme evident, reading “Please Do Not Step On The Art” on the right shoe while the left gives credit to Tinker, the artist behind the Air Max masterpiece.
A release is currently scheduled for March 9th, marked with an MSRP of $170. Enjoy a detailed look here and return to our Sneaker Release Dates page for more.
