NikeNike Air Max 1 Essential 'Black Sail'

When Nike Air Max 1 designer Tinker Hatfield was looking for inspiration, the Paris Pompidou Center stood out with its unique architecture that put its inner-workings on display. This Essential model features a mesh base with plush suede overlays and a full-grain leather mudguard. For support, the visible Max Air unit of the 1987 classic is reissued below, reinforced by a gum rubber tread.
