Another great AM1 colorway. I like how the white and black on this pair were reversed compared to what we often see. Great pair. May have to double up eventually.

Air Max 1
Sure, Air Max 1 started as a running shoe, but you can't keep innovation contained. Adopted by hip-hop culture, this runner with a controversial exposed Air unit could be found anywhere from the heart of Brooklyn to the streets of London. Its cutting-edge design and striking colourways, to this day, are celebrated year after year.

Absolutely Perfect

It doesn’t matter what the color way is, it’s an Air Max 1. Tinker’s genius on display. I loved the sneaker from the first time I saw it. Exactly like the feeling of the AJ 3. Comfortable, can be worn with anything, jeans, shorts, sweats, suits. It is a perfect collar too. I love the mix of the light bone and Psychic blue. These are going to be in heavy rotation this summer.
