After returning this year in throwback “Sport Red” tones, the Nike Air Max 1 ‘86 has surfaced in several other colorways before now arriving once again in “Blue Safari.”

The ‘86 iteration features a special “Big Bubble” which existed in the original production run before the AM1 made its official debut in 1987. Upcoming pairs are found in “Diffused Blue” hues across the suede and mesh uppers. “Safari” prints taking inspiration from an ostrich skin couch that legendary footwear designer Tinker Hatfield came across at a furniture store are featured on the wraparound mudguards, Handwritten “AIR” bubble text appears on the pre-yellowed midsoles above the transparent Air unit, and rounding out the look are lightly treaded outsoles.

Take an official look at the Nike Air Max 1 ‘86 PRM “Blue Safari” above and expect the pairs to release on June 16 via HBX, Nike and select retailers for $170 USD.

Elsewhere in footwear, here’s a first look at the MM6 Maison Margiela x Salomon XT-4 Mules.
