Air Max 90
Shanghai
Rain or shine, delivery workers traverse crowded avenues and steep staircases with a singular focus. This Air Max 90 pays respect to the underappreciated profession in the bustling city of Shanghai. A 5-star rating replaces traditional Nike Air branding on the mudguard, while a receipt-inspired tongue tag recalls memories of past transactions. On the insole, two colourful illustrations depict scooters, a preferred mode of transport for deliveries. Embroidery on the inside of the tongue helps bring the motif home.

Heritage
Remember the revolution. The year 1987 saw the birth of the Air Max lineage, showcasing visible Air for the first time. What began as an experiment in cushioning soon evolved into an icon on the track and the streets. Over the years, it's been re-imagined and re-tooled, but the heritage always remains.
