Nike Gives the Air Max Scorpion a Spring-Ready Green

For Nike, 2022 was another year of introducing bold modern looks and revisiting its famed classics. Silhouettes such as the now 40-year-old Air Force 1 saw plenty of action while the brand ushered in fresh iterations of its iconic models alongside completely new sneakers. Entering the mix, the Air Max Scorpion popped up via a first look just under a year ago and has since launched as the Air Max line’s newest entry.

In its latest take on the almost platform-soled silhouette, Nike has put together a pastel-flavored colorway. The shoe’s unique Flyknit chenille upper appears in a soft green hue that reaches from the toe cap to the heel tab. White branding elements provide contrast with its Swooshes on each side and dotted branding at the tongue and heel tabs. Tonal mini Swooshes also arrive in front of the lacing system and at the heel’s midsole. Its signature oversized sole unit is packed with Air technology in a translucent white presentation to complete the look.

Release information for this iteration of the Nike Air Max Scorpion has not yet been shared by the Swoosh. However, it is currently expected to launch via Nike and select retailers at a price of $250 USD next spring.
