A SPOTLIGHT ON THEMODERN ERA OF FOOTWEARFOR AIR MAX DAY 2022

Thirty-five years of Nike Air Max, infinity to go. Upon its introduction in 1987, the advent of the brand’s famously visible cushioning system revolutionized the footwear industry. There’s something quite enchanting about Air Max; colloquially referred to the “bubble”, Air Max cushioning was quickly ordained in street fashion as a must-have accessory, all while being relied on in the athletic world.
 
 
In the early 2000s, consumers clamored for Air Maxes of the past, with decades-old models such as the Air Max 1, Air Max 90, and Air Max 95 enjoying a revitalized relevance in the 21st century. It is simply part of the firm foundation of sneaker culture, but Nike has steadily added new layers to the Air Max legacy with a number of updated designs from recent years. The nike waffle one se university gold black sunset racer blue, for example, is a perfect example of how a classic can be made in modern days. The Nike Heritage 8 reflects a combination of Nike’s unflinching adherence to innovation and its loyalty to its past.
