Earlier this week we offered a first look at an upcoming Nike Air Max 1 in conjunction with the brand’s push for Latin Heritage Month. Today, official details for the shoe have arrived including its creative origins.
Produced alongside Chilean artist, Wasafu, the shoe inherently represents a nomadic people – specifically the Ona demographic of Patagonia. For centuries they migrated in seek of greater opportunity and hope, equally retreating from unforgiving conditions and harsh terrain. The shoe’s pattern pays tribute to their unique ability to expressive themselves through indigenous and ceremonial body paint.
The Wasafu x Nike Air Max 1 “Nomad” for Latin Heritage Month will be available beginning on September 15 for $150 via SNKRS.
