Once upon a time, back in 1987, Nike debuted the Air Max 1. Decades later, we have wide varieties of Air Maxes from the 270s to the SE 90s, and the Air Max Verona. Today, as a gift to all women who love a good, comfortable sneaker, Nike launched an immersive virtual experience, Air Max Day Worldwide, inviting visitors to experience and discover the communities and cultures inspired by Air Max’s iconic deisgn. As proud sneakerheads, we couldn’t let the day go by without paying homage to Air Max Day! Every year on March 26th, Nike honors the release of their first iconic air technology with a side-visibility window.
Today, we’re doing the same. Check out these dope Black women rocking Air Maxes and show us yours by tagging #AirMaxDay2021 and @mycleotv on Instagram.
