For over 25 years Nike have been flawlessly combining the forefront of technology and design throughout all of the Air Max styles. With roots planted firmly in sports innovation, the Air Max has gone on to become a cultural phenomenon, making waves in music, art, fashion, and those seeking a vehicle for self-expression. Guilty.
“Last year, illustrator and designer Matt Stevens created a collectible book, titled “MAX100“, containing 100 visual interpretations of the Nike Air Max 1, or, as he calls it, “the greatest sneaker of all time”.
“Coinciding with the release of the Nike Air Max Engineered Mesh series, Nike further celebrates the reinvention of Air Max by commissioning Stevens to expand on his tribute to the famed sneakers in a project aptly titled #AIRMAX.”
His designs include his own personal inspirations and interpretations along with some of the themes that inspired the original designs.
