Air Max x Concepts

The Nike Air Max x Concepts is a unique collaboration between Nike and Boston-based retailer Concepts, known for its creative and limited-edition sneakers. The collaboration is celebrated for its innovative take on classic Air Max models, which are reinterpreted with Concepts’ unique style and details. One of the most notable designs from the series is the Nike Air Max 1 x Concepts “Heavy” and “Mellow,” which were released in 2022 to celebrate the 35th anniversary of the Air Max 1. The models were inspired by the ’60s and ’70s, which is evident in the use of a variety of materials and patterns, such as denim, floral embroidery, and camouflage. These sneakers stand out not only for their aesthetics, but also for their quality of workmanship, making them coveted by collectors. Another example is the Nike Air Max 1 “Curation,” which nods to artistic and cultural heritage by combining different textures and colors into a cohesive whole. Each design within this collaboration is carefully thought out, allowing for the creation of unique shoes that stand out from other special editions.
