The Nike Air Max 1 stepped out in 1987 as the first sneaker to include visible Air technology, a feature inspired by the Pompidou Center in Paris. This 2011 'Brown Kelp' rendition includes a nylon and suede upper with a smooth leather Swoosh. Like the classic, this style features a foam midsole enhanced with a visible Max Air unit. The rubber outsole includes a Waffle-inspired traction pattern for flexible grip.
