Nike’s Air Max 1000 Sneaker Is a Futuristic Blank Slate
Nike's Air Max lineage is one of the strongest in the footwear industry, due in no small part to the enduring appeal of the Air Maxes of Swoosh's past. Now, Nike is looking toward the future to fortify its current Air Max offerings with the latest colorway of the Air Max 1000.
Its like we got a sneak peek at the Air Max sneakers our great, great, great grandkids might be wearing.
In "Stone/Burgundy Crush," this chalky iteration of the Air Max 1000 wears a 3D-printed mesh upper brought to you by Zellerfeld's futuristic printing technology.
The sculpted silhouette and minimalist Air Unit look straight from another dimension, one that's light-years ahead of our current sneaker continuum.
This is reinforced by the sneaker's lack of laces and molded Swoosh branding all throughout the shoe. If all of that wasn't enough, the Air Unit at the base wears printed "FUTURE' branding, a subtle reminder that the Air Max 1000 is way ahead of its time.
That said, this crisp white Air Max 1000 is a blank slate, the perfect place to build another 50 years of Air Max history.
