Last week saw the debut of the all-new Air Max 270 silhouette, Nike’s first lifestyle-oriented Air Max sneaker. Keeping the momentum rolling in the week leading up to Air Max Day, the Swoosh now presents another version of their latest baby, this time updated with lightweight and flexible Flyknit uppers.

The use of Nike’s signature technical weave transforms the silhouette significantly, with the uppers boasting a dynamic split White & Racer Blue colour scheme and strategic knit sections for optimal comfort and foot lockdown. Flywire lacing also helps to keep the look sleek, while premium leather accents to the tongue and heel add a hit of structure and luxury.
In contrast to the original’s (relatively) low-key branding, the Flyknit version goes big and bold, with a large Swoosh printed to the toebox, while the medial sides boast welded asymmetrical AIR 270 branding. Of course, this wouldn’t be an Air Max without the visible Air bubble, and the Air Max 270 delivers a bigger one than ever before, with 270 degrees of overblown Air to the heel in a scorching Total Crimson shade that demands attention while giving the wearer the most comfortable Air Max experience yet.

The Nike Air Max 270 Flyknit in White / Racer Blue / Total Crimson will be launching online on the 22nd of March. Keep locked to our social media feeds for more in the run-up to Air Max Day on the 26th of March.
