Building on the legacy of the Air Max 1, Nike is now set to introduce its newest Air Max model, the Air Max Motif. Inspired by Tinker Hatfield‘s iconic design, the shoe refines the design of the AM1 with a sleeker profile defined by a contemporary paneled look.

Set to debut in OG “Sport Blue” and “Photon Dust,” the Nike Air Max Motif features recycled material uppers constructed of a mix of mesh, suede and canvas. Aside from the usual midfoot Swooshes, branding comes in the form of tongue tags, “AIR MAX” embroidered at the heel and Nike Pinwheel motif marked insoles. Elevating the shoe are Air-assisted midsoles paired with translucent rubber outsoles.

Priced at $140 USD, the Nike Air Max Motif is expected to debut in the coming weeks.
