Nike Air Max 1 Flax

Descripción original en inglés.

The Nike Air Max 1 "Flax" was tasked with carrying on a long tradition of highly sought after colorways on Nike’s classic runner. Originally released in 1987, the Air Max 1 design is one of Tinker Hatfield’s best and has become a standard model on the walls of retailers since the early 90s. The Air Max 1 Flax released alongside two other classic silhouettes with the same color palette, the Air Force 1 Mid and Air Trainer 1, in November of 2014. As images hit the web, the buzz seemed to be that the "Flax Pack" would be limited and the response was generally good and often referred to as the "Wheat" pack due to the similarity of the iconic Timberland Boot colorway. The Flax Air Max 1 is officially colored Flax/Baroque Brown-Flax and features a soft nubuck upper and boot inspired laces. Along with a brown midsole and gum outsole, the inspiration for this Air Max 1 made it a clear choice for collectors. The Nike Flax collection also garnered the attention of athletes and celebs like Victor Cruz, DeMarcus Cousins and Bow Wow, among others. The buzz around the pack and its simple colorblocking made the Nike Air Max 1 Flax a popular release and one that was easy to wear.
