Nike Air Max 1

Why Choose the Nike Air Max 1

When it comes to iconic sneaker design and innovation, the Nike Air Max 1 truly stands out. Designed by the legendary Tinker Hatfield, who drew inspiration from the architecture of the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris, this groundbreaking sneaker was influenced by the inside-out building that sparked the idea of a visible Air unit.
While Nike’s Air Cushioning Technology had been around since 1978, it was the Air Max 1, launched on March 26, 1987, that made the Air unit a defining visual element in sneaker culture.
The Nike Air Max 1 is crafted for durability, comfort, and style. Its upper combines mesh, suede, and synthetic overlays for breathability and support, with premium versions featuring leather or nubuck. The foam midsole houses the iconic visible Air unit, delivering lightweight cushioning and impact absorption. A rubber waffle outsole ensures traction, while a padded collar and tongue enhance comfort.
A true pioneer in both style and performance, the Air Max 1 continues to be a must-have for sneaker enthusiasts worldwide.
