Nike Enlists the Air Max 1 with 'USMC' Pack

Nike Air Max 1s getting patriotic again with these upcoming SP pairs.

by Brendan Dunne

Two years ago, a whole host of Nike Air Max silhouettes got the "Camo Country" look, which featured special camouflage patterns and flags on the insoles declaring allegiances.

This new pack skips out on the camo, but is still reminiscent of that collection. The source labels them as "USMC" Nike Air Max 1s in reference to the United States Marine Corps, but that connection feels like an unlikely one for Nike to make (especially since they're not in the business of outfitting soldiers). The shoes will likely be an SP release when they do land, so expect stricter levels of distribution. There is no release date yet for this duo of American-flag rocking Nike Air Max 1s.
