Air Max 1 Reviews

Here’s a collection of Air Max 1 reviews.  On any given day I might say that the Air Max 1 is my favorite Air Max.  Sometimes even more so than my beloved Air Max 90s!

The sneaker originally released in 1987.  The designer Tinker Hatfield took inspiration from a building in Paris.  While Nike Air existed, the open look of the Parisian building gave rise to the visible Air Unit in the AM1.

Visible air was a big deal back then, and groundbreaking for the time.  These days, many pairs of Nikes sport an Air Bubble that can be seen from the outside, but the 1 was the first one to do it!

I still look for Air Max 1 releases today, as they tend to be the most “collectible” of AM models out there.
