The origin of Nike Air Max
The revolutionary Air unit technology began to be used in Nike shoes in 1978. In 1987, the Air Max 1 was introduced with visible Air unit technology in the heel, allowing the model's fans not just to feel but also to see the cushioning protection of the Air unit. Since then, Air Max shoes of subsequent generations have achieved remarkable success among athletes and collectors, thanks to stunning color combinations and reliable, lightweight cushioning.
