Ross Dwyer Between collaborating with Nike on a high-vis reflective capsule of tracksuits and serving as the in-house jewelry designer for Kim Jones at Dior, AMBUSH leading lady Yoon Ahn is quite busy these days. Thankfully, she’s got plenty of time for footwear too: AMBUSH’s high-top take on the Nike Air Max 180 is set to drop in a combo of black and grey, a full follow-up to the limited NikeLab release that went down at the top of the year. The 180’s standard neoprene upper is nowhere to be found, as Ahn has instead opted for a Zoom Flight “The Glove”-inspired shroud construction — adorned with a tonal swoosh and secured with a zipper — that creeps well above the wearer’s ankle for a futuristic, technical styling completed with a large branded heel tab. Although the top half is new, the bottom half is sure to be inherently familiar to any 180 fan. A light grey heel clip, white/grey midsole, and icy blue detailing surrounding the cushioning unit add a little classic style and nod to the shoe’s early ’90s genesis. A red insole with AMBUSH branding then finalizes the look. Check these unisex Maxes out below, expect a Nike.com release later this spring/summer, and stay tuned to our Sneaker Release Dates page for further updates as they’re available. Don’t feel like waiting? Pairs are also available now at Stadium Goods.
