The Nike Air Max 98’s recent snakeskin makeover will be quickly followed up by a new men’s iteration. Expected to drop this month, the model’s black base welcomes a heavy contrast of neon colors from volt to pink and orange. Starting from the bottom is a black outsole which supports a full-length Air Max unit. Atop the air unit is a neon pink midsole just below the aforementioned black upper. Alternating neon and orange piping coat the upper’s mesh construction with its heel tab sporting bright orange with a reflective 3M stripe.

This neon-accented Nike Air Max 98 will arrive on February 16 for $160 USD at select Nike Sportswear retailers and Nike.com. NSW collectors can also take a look at the racing-influenced Air Max 720 Saturn.
