They’re back. Just weeks after dropping the Patta x Nike Air Max 90 ‘Wave’ in four distinct colorways, Patta and Nike are already gearing up for their next collaboration — and this time, it’s a fresh take on the Air Max Dn8.

Unlike the previous release, this new project steps away from the ‘wave’ theme, introducing a sleek reinterpretation of a silhouette that first hit the market in 2024 as the successor to the Air Max Dn.

Let’s Dive In…

Co-founder Edson Sabajo took to Instagram to reveal a sneak peek of the collaboration, highlighting some key updates that elevate the sneaker’s look and feel. Most notably, the traditional mesh toebox has been swapped out for glossy patent leather, immediately lending the shoe a more premium and polished appearance.

In addition to the patent leather toe, the sneaker features a leather panel on the toe box adorned with subtle perforations, adding both texture and breathability. White cut-out details run along the midfoot, perfectly complementing the sculpted, organic lines of the midsole and creating a harmonious visual flow. Dark blue eyelets introduce a gentle pop of colour, contrasting elegantly with the darker tones.

A standout detail is the silver s-biner clipped across the midfoot, giving the sneaker a functional, outdoor-inspired edge rarely seen in typical Air Max releases. On the tongue, Patta’s signature script logo sits just above the iconic Nike Air Max branding, marking the collaboration unmistakably.

While the Air Max Dn8 might feel somewhat unconventional next to classics like the Air Max 1 and Air Max 90, Patta’s involvement promises to bring fresh attention and excitement to this newer silhouette. The brand’s ability to blend streetwear sensibilities with thoughtful design tweaks makes this collaboration one to watch.
