It’s no secret Skepta holds Air Max close to his heart. Its more than just a shoe for him, it is forever connected to where he grew up and to grime culture. For Skepta himself, his first connection to visible Air was made at the young age of 7.

He fell in love with Air Max with the Air Tuned Max, the first pair he ever saved up to buy on his own. Night after night, he’d go to sleep with his fresh new pair in clear view from his bed, appreciating their unique look and color-changing properties.

It’s the shoe that started it all and now brings Skepta’s love for Air Max full circle.
