Two of Nike’s OG Air Max 98 colorways are nearing their return, as the “Gundam” and “Navy/Yellow” colorways are coming soon to stores. While the sneakers were originally slated to drop on January 18th in the US, stateside retailers have confirmed with us that the release of the navy/yellow is now January 26th, and the “Gundam” has been postponed to February 24th. 2018 is gearing up to be a big year for the 98, as it is celebrating its 20th anniversary, which should lead to an uptick of drops for one of the more underutilized Air Max designs. A revived enthusiasm for 1990s Nike originals should lead to a much more successful 2018 campaign for this model, much unlike its re-issue in 2014 that several colorways hit sales racks. European retailers, however, are prepared to role out both OG pairs on January 26th for $160 USD. That may be subject to change, so stay tuned for updates.
