Today the good folks over at Nike unveiled a new concept to a classic sneaker, the Nike Air Max 1. The Nike Air Max 1 has been revamped with the addition of Vachetta leather and Vac- Tech construction to give them the new name Nike Air Max 1 VT. Check below the press release from the Nike INC site for the three colorways set to release and the release information.
[imagebrowser id=961]Since the Nike Air Max 1 first landed in 1987 it has transcended its running roots and grown into a time-honored cultural icon. What started as performance innovation has now become a staple on the street.
The Womens Nike Air Max 1 VT takes its inspiration from the idea that some things get better with age. The Vachetta leather upper is untreated and prone to creasing, staining and darkening in the sun. As the shoe ages, it develops a unique distressed patina and becomes personalized to the wearer. Nike’s Vac-Tech construction complements the Vachetta toe box with a flood of color on the rear three-quarters of the shoe that will remain relatively unchanged throughout the life of the shoe.
The Nike Air Max 1 VT will be available at Nike Sportswear retailers beginning June 29.
