If, for whatever reason, you still don't have a pair of Air Max Scorpions in your collection, perhaps the Nike Air Max Scorpion "Air Max Day" will change your mind. Every year on March 26th, Nike commemorates the birthday of the Air Max 1 with Air Max Day. An annual celebration which began all the way back in 2014, the Beaverton-based brand gets the entire sneaker community involved, while revealing some brand new releases that will definitely get your hearts racing. By the looks of things, this year's event will certainly be no different.
Giving the Air VaporMax's spiritual successor a makeover like no other, this Air Max Scorpion features a crisp white Flyknit upper with multicolored detailing across the sides. While the Swoosh on the medial is left clean and simple, the one on the lateral panel is taken over by fluffy clouds. This motif extends towards the custom insoles which feature playful graphics and characters, complete with a chat log-inspired design and calendars which show the exact date for Air Max Day. Elsewhere, a pair of twinkly eyes are embroidered across each tongue, and all of this sits on top of an extra chunky Air midsole that's as comfortable as ever.
Originally set to release alongside an Air Max 1 '87 on Air Max Day, which is scheduled for March 26th, 2023, the Nike Air Max Scorpion Air Max Day is set to drop in Summer 2023. It available in men's sizes at Nike, the SNKRS app, and select retailers globally, with a retail price set at $250.
