Once again, we’re hot on the heels of Air Max Day. If you’re unfamiliar, Air Max Day is basically Christmas for Swoosh heads. March 26 marks the day that Nike — and all of its disciples — celebrate the iconic Air Max tech that has been a front runner in the world of sneakers since it first landed in 1987. The best bit of the celebration every year is Nike’s exclusive Air Max Day drop.

Some of the most grailed Air Max kicks in the game right now were birthed on March 26.

One of the hottest releases of the year so far comes in the form of the Air Max 1 Corduroy "Baltic Blue". This bold colorway has shades of Sean Wotherspoon's grailed Air Max 97/1 that dropped on Air Max Day back in 2018.

Built from high-end materials, this version of the Air Max 1 doesn't need a bold finish to turn heads. It's neutral and brimming with retro class.

With that said, we do love a good old-fashioned head-turner. The Nike Air Max 97 SE M. Frank Rudy puts fluorescent trims against a cool grey backdrop for maximum effect.
