Nike Air Max 1

The Nike Air Max 1 has been making a bold claim lately with that “Essential” tag. Sure, most sneakerheads ought to have a pair in their rotation, but have those recent colorways really been of the must-have persuasion? Looking slightly more essential is this pair of the Leather persuasion, which sports a treatment that picks up on some bandaid style micro perforations for certain panels across the upper (We’re sure the leather approach has some of you fondly recalling some SC pairs of old).
