Back in October, we got a sneak peek at a familiar-looking color scheme on Nike’s latest Air VaporMax, and now we’ve got the full details. The upcoming iteration, dressed in grey, red and black, pays heed to one of the model’s inaugural colorways and is set to launch in early 2018.

The revamped look of one of 2017’s hottest kicks sees the Flyknit upper wrapped in a dark grey, while the Nike Swoosh — that adorns the medial sides — arrives in a “Varsity Red.” Red also hits the tongue and heel branding with black detailing — found across the upper — finishing off the body. The entire silhouette rests atop a blacked out VaporMax sole unit. This latest model — which is part of Nike’s Heritage Collection, that is honoring old-school Air Max colorways — will be available at select Nike retailers and online for $190 USD.

In other Nike news, the HyperAdapt 1.0 gets a “Habanero Red” makeover.
