Nike is gearing up for the Fall season, expanding into various colorways for some of its most classic silhouettes. October is seeing a slew of releases, including the Nike Dunk Low “UCLA” and the Air Jordan 4 “Black Canvas.” The Nike Air Max 1 ‘87 is also slated to arrive in an all-new “Ale Brown” makeup, perfect for the new season.

The shoe comes dressed in a tonal color scheme highlighted by ale brown and gum medium brown. It is made up of a mix of materials including suede, leather and mesh materials that are detailed with textured vamp and Swooshes. To match the tonal branding and overall hue of the shoe, gold upper eyelets and lace tips round ou the design while the shoe sits atop a gum rubber outsole.

The Air Max 1 ‘87 “Ale Brown” arrives in select retailers and on Nike on October 7 for $140 USD.
