Oh gosh. Never thought I’d say this about an Air Max but these are super SEXY. Yes sneaker heads, hate on me and call me for not liking the classic air max model that most of you worship. I was never into the sporty sneakers but something about this pair just stands out for me. It’s not just the bright colourway with the contrasting shiny metallic bits – it’s the construction that fascinated me. It’s completely stitch-less – the Hyperfuse is a three layer composite technology invented by Nike. It’s engineered in a very similar manner to the carbon fibre composites in F1 race cars, now that’s telling you something. Imagine the Nike labs with scientists experimenting on sneakers haha. The tech basically fuses together all 3 layers to form a continuous upper that pushes the boundaries of durability, breathability and weight. Originally inspired by the conditions that young Chinese kids were playing basketball in, they were all wearing inappropriate heavy footwear. Nike provides the solution. More on the reverse.

If you’re digging what you see then head over to Size? and cop a pair. It’s incredible, I love how lightweight it is. I’m a fan. This is coming from a guy who doesn’t wear sneakers anymore.
P.S. – Shout out to Dom!
