Original article posted March 15th, 2024: Despite Nike’s laser focus on the re-crafted ’86 model, the familiar ’87 version is still the Air Max 1 of choice for many enthusiasts. Those who’ve made the original Air Max shoe a core concentration of their sneaker collection have been reveling in the deluge of releases over the eighteen months, with those practice patience securing pairs for well under MSRP.

For Summer 2024, Nike isn’t showing any signs of slowing down the Air Max 1 production line. We just previewed a slew of new colorways to expect during the second quarter of the year, and joining that batch is this simple “Field Purple” edition that sticks to the classic look and feel that Air Max 1 nuts have come to obsess over. Suede mudguards, tumbled leather quarters, sport mesh, and matching accents at the toe of the outsole? Say less. What might deem these a sleeper is its semblance to Patta’s 2009 masterpiece, although that pair is executed with a denim twill.

Expect this Air Max 1 to hit Nike.com and retailers globally for $150. If you’re looking to celebrate Air Max Day 2024 officially, here’s the latest on the Air Max 1 ’86 “Royal”.
