NIKE legend has it that back in 1985 tinker hatfield (NIKE’s vice president for design and special projects) was so inspired by the inside-out nature of the pompidou center in paris that he set about integrating cheap replica nba jerseys a visible window into the sole of NIKE’s running shoes so that people could grasp the fact the soles were filled with air.
but the NIKE AIR MAX 1 wasn’t designed in one shot. instead, it was the result of several design iterations, one of the earliest being the concept of the AIR MAX ZERO. the AIR MAX ZERO had been nothing more than a sketch until recently, when the NIKE sportswear team cheap replica nfl jerseysdiscovered it and decided that they wanted to bring it to life as part of the AIR MAX DAY celebrations in 2015.
the AIR MAX ZERO has a form-fitting upper, with a tip-less vamp, an idea borrowed from the 1985 NIKE SOCK RACER. the sketch by tinker also shows an external heel strap that lacked a heel counter, a design concept that remained unseen until the NIKE AIR HUARACHE release in 1991.
the shoe was considered too forward thinking for the market at the time and so tinker evolved the design into the classic wholesale replica cheap jerseys
AIR MAX 1 design that’s gone on to become a NIKE icon.
