Patta Continues Its Nike Air Max 1 Legacy With The Global Release Of The “Monarch”

Amsterdam’s Patta continues to stand at the mantle of Air Max 1 collaborations, dropping breathtakingly simple creation after another in impeccable fashion. Not one to stray from proven materials on the retro runner, Patta delivers its most unique Air Max 1 yet by recrafting mudguard of the ’87 runner in an unpredictably wavy silhouette. Despite the significant change, Patta sticks to suede and mesh to achieve that classic Air Max 1 build while adding the miniature Swoosh at the forefoot and the label’s script logo on the tongue.

Considering the relative scarcity of Air Max 1 collaborations, let alone Air Max 1s period, Patta’s Monarchs have coerced even the most dormant of sneakerheads. And after initially launching at Patta on October 8th, the Patta Air Max 1 is now scheduled to release globally on SNKRS and select retailers for $160, each employing a draw/raffle system.
