OG Nike Air Max: Vintage Sneaker Collector

Posted on March 15, 2012 by bluemagicblog

Toronto’s sneaker style pretty much revolves around the Nike Air Max, especially the older styles like the 86s and 90s. The Nike Air Max shoe uses a large air cushioning unit at the heel which is visible from the side of the midsole. Nike has been releasing the shows with a vintage look that I find really cool. Soles that are already yellowed giving the oxidized looks, and a faded and rough suede. Down to the old school Nike tag on the tongue.
