Nike Air Maxim 1 Red/White
Posted by Nick Engvall | Jan 12, 2009 Nike’s Flywire and Lunarfoam technolgies have made the Hyperdunk and Zoom Kobe 4 some of the lightest basketball shoes to ever hit the court. It looks like for the Fall of 2009, the classic Air Max 1 will receive a similar lightweight makeover.
The Nike Air Maxim 1 has just hit the net, the red and white colorway is reminiscent of the HOA release, but noticeably different is the Flywire in the side panel, on top of what appears to be Lunarfoam in the midsole. Now, purists may not be feeling these kicks, but like most updated retros, time helps the technology infused classics to grow on most. Think of it as a classic 60’s Corvette with that new 620 horsepower engine under the hood, anything wrong with that? Via Colmilludo. |

I was ready to love this shoe, but the shape looks way off to me. No-one else think these look like clown shoes?

Oh my goodness these are nasty. I actually like this shoe/colorway better then the Air Max 90 “Current” infared…

Looks like crap. Who made this, someone with polio? the shapes all jacked up.

Sadly probably neither of you two probably have any idea what polio is. Either way, keep insults like these for the playground.

I’m definitely feelin’ these. The only problem I have is the swoosh painted on the side. Other than that, dope….just like the AM Current.

These actually are pretty nice. Great execution, not too much, not too little to where we would be wasting money. Copped…
Jan 12, 2009 at 2:08 pm
A must have for me! at least 2 pairs.
Jan 12, 2009 at 2:08 pm
first pic makes them look a bit off but the other two make em look good. I will reserve judgment until I see them in person.
Jan 12, 2009 at 2:56 pm

Jan 12, 2009 at 4:06 pm
