Matt Varga One of the more celebrated announcements of last years’ SNKRS showcase, the Nike Air Max Sunder made another appearance at the Holiday 2024 sequel. Three new colorways of the shoe were unveiled, all of them bearing GORE-Tex material for the first time in the silhouette’s history.
The zipper shroud that defines the Air Max Sunder is redoubled with the addition of Gore-Tex. That closure system, an expression of 90s design language frequently seen on ACG gear of that era, imbues some “all conditions” functionality even without the subtitle. Each of the three colorways hold onto OG color-blocking, split between black & red, black & purple and “Triple Black,” the lattermost eschewing accent hues entirely for a stealthy overall outfit.
For the record, those who celebrated the return of the 1999 model in OG fashion don’t have to wait that long for the fruits of last year’s showcase. The unadulterated Air Max Sunder was on-foot for a number of the presenters, and is still set for its Fall 2024 debut in three neon formulations.
At this early stage, concrete retail pricing and release info are largely obscured, but for reference, the base model is priced at $180. Take a look at first look imagery via the gallery just ahead.
