This year marks the 25th anniversary of the Nike Air Icarus, a running model which first took the shelves in the ’90s. For spring, the Swoosh has churned out a number of colorways in celebration of its legacy. January saw the OG crimson colorway unveiled, now at Nike stockists is a cherry and white colorway.

The Air Icarus is currently stocked at retailers such as KITH for $100 USD.
