Nike Introduces the Air Max Dn
The first sneaker to utilize Dynamic Air technology — the brand’s newest development in footwear cushioning.
Nike’s Air Max line has grown into an empire of its own since first hitting the scene in 1987 with the Air Max 1, and the Swoosh is showing no signs of slowing down with its expansion. Each year, Air Max Day, taking place annually on March 26, is highlighted by the introduction of a new Air Max silhouette. In 2023, it was the Air Max Pulse that took center stage and for this year, it’s time for the Air Max Dn to shine as the latest evolution in the series.
Previewed previously via early looks and rumors, the Air Max Dn has now been officially introduced by the Swoosh ahead of its debut next month. Notably, its eye-catching sole unit is backed by the brand’s newest development in footwear cushioning — Dynamic Air. Served up courtesy of the four-tubed Air unit, it emphasizes delivering a smooth stride with maximum bounce. Its dual-chamber design is comprised of two tubes per chamber, allowing air to respond with each unique step. “The feeling of heel-to-toe movement is seamless, because the air unit is interacting in real time with your foot and moves with you. The Air Max Dn was the first time we were able to unlock that feeling,” shared Reggie Hunter, product director for Nike Lifestyle Footwear.
Beyond the innovative Air unit, the sole also utilizes injected Phylon foam, a TPU shank arch clip and a TPU heel counter to fuse comfort with durability. Its debut colorways include the “All Day” and “All Night” looks, both of which feature similar finishes with the former sporting a red to purple gradient at the upper while the latter favors all-black at its base. For a closer look at the “All Night” pair, its official imagery was also revealed this week.
Release for the Nike Air Max Dn kicks off on Air Max Day (March 26) with the “All Day” colorway releasing via Nike SNKRS and select retailers, while the “All Night” pair is set to arrive alongside additional colorways via Nike’s website and select Nike storefronts in both adult and youth sizing.
