The Nike Air Max 1 Flips A New Take On “Chili”

Rethinking an everlasting colorway.

The Nike Air Max 1 Flips A New Take On “Chili”

For better or for worse, certain sneakers can never outrun certain color combinations. To wit, whether Jordan Brand designers are thinking of MJ’s alma mater when they cook up a new baby blue Jordan 1, we as the sneaker media and consumers will be right there with a “UNC” moniker. It’s those sort of ready associations that lead us to pin the history of the “Chili” Air Max 1 onto a freshly emerged colorway in black/red.

Diverging from the capsaicin-coated 1.0 and 3.0, this edition almost functions clearer as a “Reverse” edition, rejiggering the fiery color combination and landing on a red leather mudguard, black suede sidewalls, and grey/white mesh between. Even if you’ve no special attachment to the “Chili” Air Max 1, the everlasting appeal of that tri-tone blend means that this pair is still a successful one, fittingly rocking a timeless sportstyle palette atop an icon of that same school of design. nike-air-max-1-vast-grey-light-crimson-black-fz5808-015

Look for the Nike Air Max 1 in black/red to hit shelves as a part of the Fall 2025 slate, stretching from July to September. A $150 retail price is projected.
