The Origin of Nike Air Max

The revolutionary Air unit technology began to be used in Nike shoes in 1978. In 1987, the Air Max 1 was introduced with visible Air unit technology in the heel, allowing fans of the model not only to feel but also to 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 the stunning color combinations and reliable, lightweight cushioning.
