Nike Air Max 1 iD Shoe by +41

Nike Air Max 1 iD Shoe by +41

Nike hooked up with +41 to produce a Nike Air Max 1 iD shoe. According to +41, they wanted to give the shoe a “mythical” theme because it’s what draws people to look. Which brings us to the design of the eyes on the toungue: the intention is to switch the ordinary roles: instead of people looking at the sneakers, it’s thesneakers that look at you! Also the shoe represents Nike’s vision in terms of history and what they’ve accomplished. Only 41 pairs of these kicks were made and came in a “straw” package that included a +41 Air Max 1 artwork t-shirt and a pack of “eyes” stickers. Now for the heartbreak. The shoes are all sold out and was only available at the Thomas I Punkt store in Hamburg. Proceeds from the benefit goes to charity, and the exhibition at the store will continue for three weeks more. Last chance to purchase a pair of thes Air Max 1’s will be through an international auction at Zurich this October. Image/Info: +41
