While some trainer trends come and go, spending little more than one season in the spotlight, there are certain key sneaker styles that have unwavering influencer appeal and decades-long lasting power. Case in point? Nike’s classic Air Max 1.
The shoes that first launched the brand’s air-cushion revolution back in 1987, Nike Air Max 1s may be over 30 years old, but the clean shape, super-comfy soles (who doesn’t love that pillowy bounce?) and fresh colour updates have meant it’s a style that’s stayed firmly in the wardrobes of fashion’s elite.
Completing front row–worthy suit combos and weekend brunch outfits alike, the versatile shoes have that rare magical ability to complement pretty much any wardrobe look, which is undoubtedly why they’re still so popular with influencers heading anywhere but the gym. Keep scrolling to see some of our favourite Nike Air Max 1 outfits and shop key styles.
Style Notes: Summer’s double-denim looks call for one thing only—box-fresh white sneakers.
Style Notes: Subtle accents in key 2018 colours make the latest drop of Air Max 1s particularly appealing.
Style Notes: Smart trainers are the perfect way to keep tailoring feeling fresh and not overly formal. Go for a head-to-toe colour palette and you’ll be ticking all kinds of 2018 trend boxes.
Style Notes: When you’ve got too much sightseeing on the agenda for sandals, but want to keep that summer dressing vibe? Yep, Air Max 1s are great for that too.
