Nike's time-honored Air Max 1, a sneaker that revolutionized the footwear industry with its visible air unit back in 1987, is no stranger to reinterpretations, and this year is no exception. As we approach the close of 2023, Nike has unveiled yet another iteration for the ladies, part of the upcoming "Cordairoy" series. The Nike Air Max 1 '87 Cordairoy (W) follows in the footsteps of its corduroy predecessors, including the Baltic Blue and Coral Stardust, integrating luxurious textures and nostalgic vibes into its design. This pair will launch alongside a cozy Dunk Low and Air Max 90 under the same theme.
This latest Nike Air Max 1 '87 rendition features autumnal shades and rich textures, starting with a golden suede base layer, setting a muted yet glamorous stage for the rest of the sneaker. The collection's namesake material, Corduroy, wraps the overlays in an earthy tan that pairs effortlessly with the season's palette. Complementing these warm tones is a tan suede Swoosh, delicately stitched onto the midfoot for a subtle branding touch. Nike introduces a crisp white lace set and corresponding "Air" text on the tongue to balance out the rich textures. This classic-meets-contemporary sneaker is rounded off with a reliable white Air Max 1 midsole, underpinned by a gum rubber outsole, promising both comfort and timeless style.
The Nike Air Max 1 '87 Cordairoy W will release November 9, 2023, through Nike and select retailers online and in-store. Available in women’s sizing, the retail price is set at $160.
