Matt Varga Since their soft launch via the Supreme collaboration last month, the publicly revealed palettes for the next member of the Air Max family have been unveiled on a pretty constant basis as we prepare for their official drop on Air Max Day. Having kicked off its own unique colorways and nodded to AM history, the women’s “Light Orewood Brown” colorway brings them into the mix with a recent trademark Nike shade.
Though not as heavily spotlighted as tones of “Cacao Wow” or “Smokey Mauve,” we’ve seen “Light Orewood Brown” pushed on shoes like the Nike Air Foamposite Pro and Nike Zoom Vomero 5 in the past several months. Here, the color dresses almost the entirety of the upper, also providing cohesiveness by hitting the liner, tongue and laces. Further down, a neutral grey envelops the sole, midsole, toe cap and graphic overlays that outline the silhouette. Finally, a deep burgundy peers out in the space between, as well as underlining the Dn branding on the very back.
A few previous looks for the Dn have played things more lowkey, but this pair charts forward a path for the Dn as a neutral-toned lifestyle shoe. At the very least, it’s a far departure for the undeniable vibrancy of colorways like “All Day,” “All Night” or “Volt.”
Though the announcement of the Nike Air Max Dn “Light Orewood Brown” comes shortly before the actual holiday, it’s more likely that they’ll be launching in the weeks after it. Once they do have a confirmed date, expect them to carry a $160 retail price and arrive in women’s sizing.
Though the brand’s holiday is certainly top of mind for us, we’re also looking ahead to the next big Jordan release. Join us by checking out the latest on the Air Jordan 9 “Powder Blue.”
