Following the last iteration of the Air Max 98 in “White/Teal Nebula,” Nike has released another bold rendition of the silhouette, this time arranged in a “White/Psychic Purple” combination for the current season.

Coming in a mix of materials like mesh, leather and nylon, this particular model follows the thematic color scheme of the Toronto Raptors, reigning red and deep purple accents over a slew of details. The top of the tongue is stamped with bold “air max” branding over a purple base, complemented by bright red laces. Black stripes cover the sidewalls, while a red Swoosh is placed above the mudguards. Other details like the ripstop heel tab, a mini-Swoosh at the forefoot and a crisp white midsole sit atop a full-length Air Unit outsole that exposes the red-hued inner cushioning technology.

The Nike Air Max 98 “White/Psychic Purple” is currently available at atmos-tokyo.com for $170 USD.

Elsewhere, McQ Alexander McQueen has unveiled its vividly color-blocked Daku Sneakers.
