Jacquemus and Nike are reuniting for a second collaboration later this yr, following the French trend home’s luxed-up riff on the Air Humara launched in 2022. Their newest undertaking collectively is an much more tantalizing twist on the Air Max 1 86, a ground-up reinvention of the long-lasting working shoe that’s very a lot in step with Simon Porte Jacquemus’s playful spirit.
First glimpsed in leaked photographs late final yr, the collaboration was formally confirmed by Jacquemus final week, and now we’ve bought a clearer view of what to anticipate. The sneaker is ready to reach in three distinctive colorways: silver, white, and what the model is referring to as “darkish purple,” although it seems nearer to the eye-popping cherry of the traditional purple Air Pressure 1. All three fashions are decked out in suede, mesh, and leather-based and set off with distinctive Jacquemus detailing, together with a miniature silver swoosh alongside the higher and rectangular air bubble within the midsole. All of it provides as much as an iteration of the Air Max 1 that’s each recognizable and fully new.
