Ten years since the first “Skulls” drop, the NIKE AIR MAX 1 & NIKE AIR MAX 95 SKULLS PACK returns to pay homage to a fundamental Nike running icon.
It’s been ten years since Nike dropped the first Skulls Pack in homage to legendary track runner Steve Prefontaine, so it was high time they provided us with another future classic. Like the pack that came before it, Nike treat us to another duo, but whilst the first Skulls Pack concentrated on a vibrant palette of either green and grey or royal blue and tango orange (with speckled midsoles to boot), the forthcoming follow-up goes back to basics with a classic black and white palette across the brand’s popular Air Max 95 and Air Max 1 silhouettes.
Thirty years old this year but still looking as fresh as the day it was released, the Air Max 1 is decked out with solid black leather and suede uppers atop its legendary visible air midsole. The ‘Skulls’ logo is added to the tongue’s tab in chrome, adding a little extra sparkle to a perfectly uncluttered design.
The Air Max 95 follows in the pioneering model’s footsteps, mirroring the clear-cut design with a black mesh and leather construction across the silhouette’s iconic waved uppers. A white rubber midsole finishes the shoe, with chrome Skulls branding to the tongue, as well as an embroidered hit of the trademark Swoosh and extra chrome blast to the back heel panel.
