Nike?s most advanced Air Max shoe ever is finally here. Debuted almost a year ago at Nike?s Innovation Summit 2016, the VaporMax has been one of the most anticipated models in the footwear realm ever since. With its official release quickly approaching, the shoe that sits on nothing but Air is already making the rounds in the press and promotion circuits, and we were lucky enough to try out a pair last night in New York City on a special media trial run. After an introduction discussion with two of the shoe?s designers, Kathy Gomez (VP Nike Innovation) and Andres Harlow (VP/Creative Director of Nike Running), and the run itself, we learned a few new facts about the VaporMax. Here’s a little insider information you probably didn?t know about the amazing new sneaker.

The Nike Footscape Woven Chukka has been a lifestyle favorite since attaining a cult-like status in parts of Asia like Japan.

Before the high-octane action of the NBA Playoffs in late April, the nation’s best college teams – 64 of them to be exact – will convene for a one-and-done sudden death battle called the NCAA Tournament. With millions of eyeballs watching each and every contest, footwear brands have prepared new gear for these youngsters to wear, and beginning during the Sweet 16 round, Nike will unleash the “Time To Shine” Pack consisting of the Nike Kyrie 3, Nike PG 1, and the all-new Nike KD 9 Elite.

The colorways are kept simple, with white, grey, and black options acting as the foundations for the three shoes, but what’s making each shoe pop is the shiny iridescent finish on the Swoosh logos of each shoe. Nike has considerably toned down the colorways of their shoes, spurning the louder hues for more subdued, palette-cleansing options with more minute yet powerful details. While the Nike PG 1 “Prototype” aka “Shining” has released and sold out, the Kyrie 3 and KD 9 Elite are set to release soon.

Author’s Take:

Renz Ofiaza, News: I really like the approach of this “What The”-inspired design. I just like how it’s utilized for a particular portion of the sneaker, instead of it spread out everywhere. This model is one my favorite runners and I’m all for this offering.
