Nike and its Air Max line continues to celebrate its heritage with milestones such as the 35th anniversary of the Air Max 1. However, the Swoosh is also designing for the future. As a result, the Air Max Scorpion is on its way as the newest model in the popular lifestyle line. The silhouette has immediately sparked discussion with mixed responses of adoration and criticism that primarily has focused on its oversized sole unit.

Now, after a black colorway with a colorful sole popped up, “Triple Black” is set to cover the model. The classic makeover utilizes various shades of black and dark gray to subtly outfit the not-so-subtle model. While the Flyknit upper looks to be styled similarly to a contemporary Air Max, the bulky Air-infused sole unit elevates this model to an experimental look.

The launch of the Nike Air Max Scorpion and its “Triple Black” colorway has not yet received a release date. However, keep an eye out for Nike to officially unveil the model in the coming months and expect this pair to hit shelves via Nike and select retailers soon.

In case you missed it, a first look at the Nike ISPA Sense Flyknit popped up earlier this week in two colorways.
