Nike has revealed a chic version of the iconic Air Max 1 '87, named the 'Snakeskin.' As the name suggests, this sneaker features a striking snakeskin print on the upper, giving it a bold and luxurious look. This isn't the first time Nike has used a snake pattern on a sneaker, as the 2022 Air Force 1 also had a snakeskin version.
The 'Snakeskin' colorway combines beige and cream overlays, which beautifully contrast with the snakeskin pattern on the toe and Swoosh. The sneaker features a satin tongue, enhancing its chic feel, along with gold details on the tongue and heel, adding to its luxurious vibe. The midsole has a yellowed look, giving the pair a retro, vintage touch.
Although the exact release date for the Air Max 1 '87 'Snakeskin' is still unknown, it’s clear that Nike is continuing to build on the success of the Air Max 1 line after 2023. Air Max 1 fans are sure to be excited about this new, refined version.
