Continuing its Air Max 270 unveils, Nike recently took the covers off an alternate look of the new AM model inspired by the Air 180. Like the models previously released, the alternate Air Max 270 features a new hybrid sole unit which features an all-new amalgam external Air heel bag and lightweight foam forefoot sole.

By paying homage to the classic model, the bootie upper of the shoe is constructed of engineered mesh materials and a sports look nearly identical to the Air 180. The iconic “180” logo found on the extended tongue and the Nike Air branding on the heel and overlays fully expresses the retro inspiration of the modern sneaker.

Although no pricing details are available just yet, the Air 180-inspired Air Max 270 is set to release March 2 at select Nike retailers.

Also, Nike recently unveiled an Air Vapormax Plus with an attention-commanding gradient upper.
