Nike Sportswear’s been dominated by the Air Max Day 2017 Collection that’s seen a bevy of awesome retro inspirations and the coming rollout of the highly anticipated Nike VaporMax, but there’s a lot more too look forward to this month with silhouettes outside of the realm of visible air. One of the go-to lifestyle offerings for premium casual wear has been the Nike Air Footscape Woven Chukka, an oddity that was incredibly popular in Asia that eventually found its market here in the USA. NSW is bolstering the heavily woven offering with the coming Footscape Woven Chukka Hairy Suede Pack slated to release in 3 colorways on March 16th, 2017 for $180 USD each.

We’ve already seen the Nike Footscape Woven Light Bone release at select international retailers, but if that tonal option wasn’t for you there’s also Flat Gold and Black/Anthracite options available featuring bolstered hairy suede on the upper to contrast a simpler soft suede on the mudguard. Of course, those somewhat overly ambitious woven panels and asymmetrical lacing that gives the Footscape Woven Chukka its decisive construction return with a higher than usual ankle collar bolstered by stretchy neoprene. Check out more detailed shots below and grab your pair on 3/16. Stay tuned for more of the latest Release Dates right here on Sneaker News.

How many remixes of the Nike Air Force 1 are we going to get this year? Nike Sportswear has been updating Bruce Kilgore’s iconic retro basketball creation in more ways than we can count whether it’s through high-concept collaborations with ACRONYM, streetwear-ready takedowns in incredibly limited runs like the recently released VLONE offering, or a teched out look that’s more ready than ever to hit the runway in the Nike Air Force 1 Tech Craft, recently unveiled at NYFW by fashion label Rochambeau.

Today we get a look at yet another update with the Nike Air Force 1 Tech Craft Low, as the luxurious remix features Jacquard-like panels on the toecap, minimal eyelets to match the premium leather, additional ventilations on the side panel, and that’s just the start of where this AF1 takes a turn for the modern. Also included is an updated sockliner, a unique lifestyle-inspired ankle collar and heel tab, and a lower tongue with a leather tongue label featuring embossed ‘Nike Air’ branding. A Black colorway will be available for men’s this Spring 2017 season followed by an off-white Sail/Gum women’s offering.

Check out more detailed shots of the latest incarnation of the Air Force 1, and expect the AF1 TC Low to release at select retailers this coming Spring 2017. Of course, you can find other colorways and mock-ups of Bruce Kilgore’s classic on Nike.com.

It was just reported that the Atmos x Nike Air Max 1 x Air Jordan 3 Pack would be releasing on March 18th for the retail price of $400. The pack is said to be a hyperstrike (ultra limited) release, so most of us are going to have a real hard time picking up a pair. The good news is that the Nike Air Max 1 Atmos Elephant from the pack will also be releasing individually.

For the most part, the Air Max 1 from the pack is very similar to the one that will be sold on its own. The Air Max 1 from the pack will come with additional features such as the Jumpman on the outsole and the elephant print design on the insoles, while the pair selling on its own opts for more of a true OG design with no extra branding.

Just like the Atmos x Nike Air Max 1 x Air Jordan 3 Pack, the Nike Air Max 1 Atmos Elephant will also be releasing on March 18th with the retail price set at $150. Said to also be a limited release, you will be able to find a pair at select Nike retailers as well through Nike SNKRS. Who’s going after a pair? Better yet, who’s not going after a pair?

The classic Dr. Doom pair is returning in a couple weeks, although, this newest variation of the Nike Air Foamposite Pro continues the Fantastic Four theme next year with a Metallic Silver ? ?Silver Surfer?-inspired theme.

The basketball sneaker?s defining shimmering hue essentially covers rugged profile, while it’s also pronounced with a carbon fiber print throughout for a more distinctive look. Flaunting a simplistic two-tone color scheme, it’s completed with contrasting black accents adorning the tongue, eye stays and inner lining, with more shiny elements evidenced with the Swoosh logos adorning each side panel. Finally, a translucent outsole finishes off the overall makeup.

It’s been three decades since Tinker Hatfield brought the concept of visible air to fruition, and while the Air Max 1 and Jordan 3 were initially created as performance models, both silhouettes have been lifestyle staples and some of the most sought after retros in the Swoosh’s catalog ever since hitting retail shelves. Tokyo’s atmos knew this and was one of the first boutiques to collaborate with the famed 1987 model, the stand out of course being the 2007 atmos x Nike Air Max 1 “Elephant Print”. atmos designer Hirofumi Kojima combined the iconic Elephant Print from the Air Jordan 3 with its visible air predecessor for one of the most memorable collaborative efforts ever, and now the retro is coming back both in OG form and as part of the special edition Jordan Max atmos Pack on March 18th, 2017 in celebration of Air Max Day.

Nike News sat down with Hirofumi to talk his design process and how exactly the iconic atmos x Nike Air Max 1 “Elephant Print” came to be. Surprisingly enough, the 2007 release wasn’t initially inspired from the Air Jordan 3, but was instead seen as an opportunity to put animal prints back in style after seeing some vintage ‘Nike kids’ with zebra printed shoes. Kojima says: “I remember talking with the people in Nike Japan, who were involved in the project, about creating something crazy and stupid that would give impact to the market. We happened to find a pair of vintage Nike kids shoe with zebra print, and we decided to create shoes with animal prints under the concept of zoo.”

Hirofumi also drops some gems including how he wishes that the Jade colored Swoosh would have been created in a premium leather instead of the contrasting patent leather. We also have an update regarding the release date of the coming atmos Jordan 3: as it will be releasing on March 18th, 2017 at select global retailers (stay tuned for a coming ‘Where To Buy’ post in the near future). Check out the full interview with the atmos designer over on Nike News, and be sure to check out more of the official images below.

Tinker Hatfield changed the sneaker game forever when he introduced the Nike Air Max 1 over three decades ago. The visible air-wielding model has since become one of the most classic sneakers of all time, and Tinker was such a fan of the technology that he took a huge risk when designing his first creation for Michael Jordan in 1988’s Air Jordan 3 by including the air window and a head-turning graphic print on the heel and toecap. Now the two Tinker greats are coming together with the help of Elephant Print and Safari Print in the Jordan Max atmos Pack on March 26th, 2017, headed to retailers in limited quantities for $400 USD.

This is undoubtedly the crown jewel of Air Max Day 2017 given what’s at stake here. The atmos x Nike Air Max 1 “Elephant Print” is already getting a stand-alone retro treatment, but here there’s a major difference thanks to the Jumpman branding on the outsole. Then there’s the atmos Jordan 3, a pair that takes inspiration from the Japanese boutique’s Nike Air Max 1 “Safari Print” by substituting the graphic in for the usual Elephant Print. A premium black suede base sees off-white land on the ankle collar and midsole while alternating shades of forest green and orange clash with an icy outsole unit. (You might remember the latest atmos x Nike Air Max 1 “Safari Print” retro getting that update a few years back).

Be sure to check out our exclusive set of images of the upcoming Jordan Brand and Nike Sportswear offering that’s sure to be one of the most in-demand releases of 2017 so far and stay tuned for more upcoming Air Max Day updates right here on Sneaker News.
