The Nike Air Max 98 Is Making A Serious Comeback
Images: SNEAKER NEWS
I'm biased and I'll say it forever - the 90s were great. If you grew up in the 90s era, you were blessed to be able to witness classic greatness in sports, style, and sneakers. We have been celebrating Air Max silhouettes big in 2017, and it continues this year with the anniversary of the Air Max 98. Even though you may have not heard the same hype behind the 98 versus some of its sneaker siblings, we are here to tell you this is a MUST HAVE.
The retro of the Nike Air Max 98 "Gundam" colorway makes it return after 20 years. The sneaker is dressed in a gorgeous blue, red, and white color scheme. With various textures and patterns, the "Gundam" AM98 features red Swooshes on the upper, 'AIR' branded on the heel, and a full red Air Max unit midsole. This head-turner sits on a black outsole bringing the look together.
If you're feeling these classics like we are, you will be able to purchase at select Nike retailers for $160 USD on January 18th. Stay tuned and cop via our SHOP THE SNEAKS button on release day!
While we wait for the AM98 to drop next week, we have adding some gems below that you may have missed out on.
