Nike bring in the New Year with their latest re-work of Tinker Hatfield’s iconic Air Max 1 silhouette as they present the Ultra Moire collection.
Back in 2006, Nike released one of it’s most underrated running silhouettes to date in the Zoom Moire, which was also one of the first Nike shapes to be made with consideration for the Nike+ technology that we all take for granted these days. Nike have taken cues from the 2006 release as they apply a seamless perforated upper to their latest rendition of the Air Max 1.
The Ultra Moire is simplistic in its aesthetic but holds a premium feel with synthetic suede gracing the laser perforated, one piece upper. The latest iteration of the Air Max 1 debuts the new ‘Natural Motion’ outsole unit that reduces the amount of material used, dramatically improving flexibility and reduces weight. The Black/White colour way shown above features a black and white mix on the upper with a contrasting white outsole, accentuated with 3M detailing on the mudguard, eyelets and the swoosh.
The Nike Air Max 1 Ultra Moire will be available from nike.com/sportswear and selected Nike Sportswear retailers.
