An "Olympic" Nike Air Max 1 Showing Up in the Absence of Olympics

There aren't any Olympics planned for next year, but we're still getting this Olympic Air Max.

There are already a couple of Nike Air Max 1 pairs associated with the "Olympic" theme.

There just might be another one in 2015 when this gold-Swooshed version of the shoe hits retailers. The Olympic theme is usually geocentric, as Americans tend to call a shoe with the red/white/blue by that name and ignore the fact that plenty other nations will be participating (although the gold Swoosh here further links it up with that possible theme). Then again, there are no Olympic games planned next year. This Nike Air Max 1 has a predecessor this year in the form of the white/gold FB creation.
