Nike Sportswear Looks to the Sky for New Five-Shoe "Flight Pack"
Colorful takes on the Air Max 1, Air Max 270 React, Air VaporMax Plus, Air Max Plus, and Air Max Plus 3, inspired by aerial activities.
Nike Sportswear is looking up to the sky on its new “Flight Pack,” a colorful collection of popular Air Max silhouettes with bright tones inspired by aerial activities like skydiving, parachuting and hot air balloons. Consisting of the Air Max 1, Air Max 270 React, Air VaporMax Plus, Air Max Plus, and Air Max Plus 3, the collection is resplendent with vivid hues, rife with special detailing and replete with styles both modern and classic.
Vibrant reds, yellows, blues and greens appear throughout, with each silhouette interpreting its aeronautical inspiration in a different fashion. Air Max 1s, 270 Reacts, and Pluses each use a black base with loud accents on overlays and branding, while the VaporMax Pluses and Plus 3s bring bright shades directly to their base and use black for accents.
Amidst all these colors, there’s some notable branding to be had as well. Partially-covered text on each shoe’s lateral side — save for the Air Max 270 React, which opts to place its text on the throat — reads (in part) “Catching Air MFG, Jump Dept. SP.20 Flight Pack.” A multi-colored parachute graphic that’s secured to a Swoosh also appears on tongues and/or insoles on all five pairs.
If you’re looking to catch some Air, you’ll want to be quick: all five pairs are available on the Nike webstore now, but available sizes are limited. Prices range from $120-$210 USD.
