Nike Air Max 1 '86 BRS

Pulling from the archives, the Air Max 1 ’86 tells one of Nike’s biggest stories: revealing Air to the world. But the lesser-known fact is that for the first few months of its release, the Air Max 1 featured a noticeably bigger window. So, like…why did the window shrink? We discovered an exposed Air unit tends to crack in cold temperatures, so Nike engineers had to adjust on the fly. We created a new Air unit and quietly "shrunk the window both in length and height." Lucky for us, it’s not the ‘80s anymore. The bubble-bursting days of yore stayed where they belong—firmly rooted in the past. And for all our fellow Air Max heads, this Classic Green and Bronzine color scheme puts all the striking details on full display (check out that glossy Ember Glow Swoosh logo). The “Big Bubble” honors the origins of visible Nike Air, all while keeping it right where it belongs—under your feet for the journey forward. - NIKE.COM.
