Nike’s Air VaporMax silhouette has transcended infancy with a slew of sought-after motifs, viz., CdG, Off-White ™, ACRONYM and more since its inception this past February. A lot of praise goes to the innovate shoe’s seamless air bubble sole that has even been affixed to chukkas, and even Air Max 97 models. Now, the Swoosh is kicking things up a notch for what appears to be a next-generation Air VaporMax.

Ostensibly titled the Air VaporMax Flyknit Utility, this murdered-out pair will surely catch the attention of ACG or techwear fans alike. It’s equipped with an elongated ankle collar and a reinforced lacing system. Of course, the blacked-out air bubble unit with its distinct tread pattern is one of the more unique attributes of the sneaker.

Check out the trail-inspired VaporMax above and stay tuned for more details.
