For the second part of our Air Max Day trilogy we turned to none other than Newcastle native and Air Max 95 fanatic Rhys McKee. With an uncanny love for Air Max culture and an endless stream of cultural knowledge, Rhys is the embodiment of a modern-day sneaker connoisseur. Have a look at Rhys' selects from the overwhelming number of submissions from our SNKRS community.

"What I love most about this hybrid is the subtle combination of the Air Max 97 and the Air Max Plus. The colour combination is super on point and in this case completes the outfit in a banging manner."

"I like this Air Max 95 a lot, it’s a strong colourway that I feel largely flew under the radar. I also like this shoe as I think it’s reminiscent of the Air Jordan IV Undefeated. Definitely a pair I regret not picking up."
@claric_e
"This shoe is the epitome of a strong colourway on the Air Max 95. It’s a women’s exclusive and it causes envy of those with big feet, myself included. Worn effortlessly and as a talking point with an all black outfit."

"The BW is a very British silhouette. It’s a very brash and in-your-face type of shoe. This desert-like colourway looks smooth and subtle, but still outspoken."
@jiisquared
"An Ultra silhouette is maybe not going down in history, but this release was a big deal for London and its music scene. The shoe represents that and carries that character."

"The Air Max 95 Atmos ‘Animal Pack’ is a testament to the wearability of the Air Max 95. Irrespective of all the different layers and textures used, it meshes well with the loudest of outfits. A truly iconic Air Max 95 colourway."
@schopes
"We’re talking about a real classic Air Max 97 from the Country Camo Pack This military look was released in 2017 and will definitely be an absolute classic in ten years."
@happyndeye
"These 1’s were fairly available when they came out. Even though they weren’t that limited they are still very premium. A big plus is the fact that they go with anything."

"This Air Max Tailwind IV celebrated the 20-year anniversary of Sneakersnstuff. It is very reminiscent of Beavis and Butthead. I like the nostalgic and very wearable colourway, it works effortlessly dressed up or down. This shoe draws inspiration from the unreleased prototype of the Nike Air Tailwind introduced in 1979."
