From an impeccable design, to a sustainable approach, the Nike Air VaporMax is proving to be one of the most sought after silhouettes. The first shoe with a visible Air-cushioning unit, the original Nike Air Max was released in 1987. Ten years after, the Air Max 97 evolved with an Air unit along the entire sole, which inspired the VaporMax model, that debuted in 2017. Building upon a 30-years legacy, the Nike Air VaporMax provides lightweight cushioning with a unit that acts as a standalone outsole.
