Nike Air Max 1 Bred

Paying homage to an incredible colorway and an important holiday, the Nike Air Max 1 "Bred" dropped for Valentine’s Day in 2015. Traditionally, Air Max 1 colorways stand on their own but that’s not to say that the black and red colorway of this version doesn’t. This Bred AM1, however, gets a colorway and material options that most sneakerheads will find familiar from another type of sneaker, the Air Jordan 1. From a distance, the black and red, or "bred" for short, color combo looks rather simple but a closer look at the leather upper reveals a very unique detail, not found on any other Air Max 1. The Bred Air Max 1 features the Nike Air logo embossed in the heel, and not on the rear of the shoe as is customary. Instead, Nike Sportswear opted to place it on the lateral heel side of this AM1. Because this Air Max 1 released around Valentine’s Day, it was also give the same nickname. However you want to say it, the Valentine’s Day Nike Air Max 1 "Bred" is a combination of two of the most important sneakers in history and demand for it was high from the day it released.
