Andrew Rizzo The inaugural Swarovski x Nike collaboration had the sneaker game in a chokehold. In 2017, the world famous jeweler came out with a duo of bedazzled Air Max 97s that were met with extraordinary demand despite their premium price tag to match. Now nearly a decade later, Swarovski has its sight set on Sean McDowell’s Air Max Plus.
Swarovski’s latest Air Max shoe was unveiled in two colorways, “Pimento” and “Moonlight,” during a SNKRS Showcase back in June. While the “Pimento” doesn’t have a solid date yet, the “Moonlight” will release in-store at select Foot Locker locations on December 5th. The shoe features a black base and midsole with Swarovski crystals pasted onto the overlays, complete with Swarovski co-branding and a microfiber dustbag. Foot Locker tapped WNBA star Arike Ogunbowale of the Dallas Wings for the campaign, as shown below.
Discounting a Swarovski x Air Max 1 Golf in 2019, the delivery marks the first Swarovski x Air Max lifestyle shoe since their aforementioned debut capsule. Rumors of a three-way Swarovski x Supreme x Air Max 95 came about in 2019 as well, but such a collaboration never materialized. While we haven’t heard of any additional upcoming Swarovski x Nike collaborations, the Austrian jeweler will debut its first ever Jordan Brand project in 2025. A Swarovski Jordan 1 High nike air max looney tunes women nike torch grey blue and pink gold shoes is earmarked for next May.
Back to the more immediate future, the Swarovski Air Max Plus “Moonlight” releases via Nike SNKRS and in-store at select Foot Locker locations on December 5th. The shoe commands a $450 shelf price due to its premium nature and will be available in women’s sizes only (5 to 14.5). See detailed campaign images below if you plan on trying for a pair.
