Nike Takes Air Max 1s Back to 1987

Remembering the sneaker's birth year.

The Nike Air Flight '89 that proudly sported its debut year on the rear is echoed in this new Air Max 1, which takes a similar approach.

On back, the pair has an 8 on the left shoe and a 7 on the right, the two combining to reference the year that the world first got a glimpse at this ground-breaking runner. Also on the way is a similar Nike Air Max BW—although that pair just reads "BW" on the back rather than donning a nod to its debut era.

There is no sneaker release date information available yet for these "87" Air Max 1s.
