Nike is bringing back another classic silhouette from the Cult Classics archive. Last year, we saw several classics make a return, such as the Air Max 1 'Big Bubble' and the Mac Attack. And now, in May 2024, the Nike Air 180 silhouette will also be making a comeback.
The sneaker is designed by none other than Tinker Hatfield, the designer responsible for iconic designs like the Air Max 1, Air Jordan 3, and many more. According to Nike, the sneaker's sole is inspired by a horseshoe and is one of Nike's first models to deform the Air unit into the outsole.
