Following recent releases of an ACG-inspired scheme and a “Thunder Grey” edition, Nike‘s Air Max 1 continues its multi-textile streak with a new “Dark Obsidian/Cobalt” colorway.

This version of the Swoosh classic features a crepe gum sole and white midsole combo, paired with a mixed-texture upper. The panels are constructed of various materials including nubuck, suede, leather and corduroy, as well as white chenille at the Swoosh. The colorway’s classic look is achieved by a palette of navy blue, forest green and burgundy.

The Nike Air Max 1 “Dark Obsidian/Cobalt” will release on December 13 for €145 EUR ($164 USD) at Allike’s web store.
