The Origin of Nike Air Max
The revolutionary Air unit technology began being used in Nike shoes in 1978. In 1987, the Air Max 1 was first introduced with visible Air unit technology in the heel, allowing fans of the model to not only feel but also see the cushioning of the Air unit. Since then, the Air Max shoes of subsequent generations have achieved great success among athletes and collectors, thanks to their stunning color combinations and reliable, lightweight cushioning.
