Nike is embracing its wild side with a premium Air Max 1 decked out in reptilian leather; another standout alongside the “King’s Day” Air Max 1 and ongoing Low Poly series.

Aside from the Swoosh logos, the entire upper is cut from, premium, reptilian-textured faux material. While we’re used to seeing snake/croc skin sneakers favor green/camo tones, including recent Air Max DN8 and Nike Field General styles, these are tamed by all-white treatments. Tangentially, NIGO’s upcoming Air Force 3 “Croc Pack” includes a likeminded albino colorway of its own.

The Nike Air Max 1 Premium “Reptile” is expected to release soon via nike.com, priced at $150 in men’s sizes. Enjoy official images below and preview other upcoming Air Max 1s on our Sneaker Release Dates page.

Elsewhere in the Air Max world, the Nike Air Max 95 “Olympic” is returning in 2026.
