The land of the rising sun is already privy to these sneakers of the setting sun. That’s right, the Nike Air Max EM “Sunset Pack” is already starting to show up at overseas retailers like Nike Harajuku in Japan. The group consists of the Nike Air Max 1 EM, Nike Air Max 90 EM, Nike Air 180 EM, Nike Air Max 95 EM, and the Nike Air Max 97 EM. If you’re keeping track, that’s a decade of Air Max classics reworked with the Engineered Mesh touch and this burning bright colorway. Continue reading for a look at each and remember that these will be at US retailers at the beginning of June.

Nike Air Max 1 – Volt – Black

Volt and Black has always been an icon of Air Max kicks, but not so much before the year 1995 when the Air Max 95 debuted the ground-breaking colorway. In fact, Volt/Black on the Air Max 1 is a rarity, with select Dave White collaborations and Nike iD offerings being the only route to Volt/Black AM1s. Things are about to change later this year when Nike Sportswear unveils the Nike Air Max 1 in this dazzling colorway in Premium form, using a unique color-blocking scheme and splitting the mudguard from volt to black – something also rarely (if ever) seen on the OG Air Max shoe. Expect this sick Air Max 1 to touch down at NSW retailers this Holiday 2013 season, with early reports noting an October release.

atmos x Nike Air Max 1 “Elephant Print” – 2011 Promo Sample

atmos nike air max 1 elephant 2011 sample atmos x Nike Air Max 1 Elephant Print 2011 Promo Sample

The 2007 release of the atmos x Nike Air Max 1 is currently one of the more sought-after Air Max 1s in history, leaping off the insanely popular “Safari” and “Viotech” versions that the Japanese retailer crafted years prior. What makes this sample a interesting find is that the label on the tongue notes these as a promo sample made for the Summer 2011 season – four years after the initial release. A quick examination of this sample version doesn’t reveal any discrepancies from the released version, so the question remains: Why was this recreated in 2011? Was a wider retail release in the works, or did Nike make these for a VIP who happens to wear a size 13? This 2011 Promo Sample of the atmos x Air Max 1 is definitely a head-scratcher, so let us know what your opinions and see what the asking price was in this ended listing by sneaker_vault_23 on eBay.

Liberty of London Floral Prints Now Available on NIKEiD

Posted on May 7, 2013 by Brian Farmer

Floral prints made famous by the British fashion house Liberty of London have come to NIKEiD for the first time. Liberty has contributed its Capel and Pepper fabrics to create a NIKEiD first. Classic Nike silhouettes such as the Air Max 1, Dunk Hi and Lo, Blazer Mid and Lo, and the cult favorite Roshe Run are all ready to be reupholstered in famous prints. The Capel features a looser, larger floral while the Pepper fabric contrasts with a tighter multi-colored option. Both fabrics work well with a variety of accent colors, allowing the customizer ample personalization options. The two Liberty fabrics are now available for customization at NIKEiD.com.

Nike Air Max 1 “MF DOOM” Customs by Jwdanklefs

The time we faced Doom was back in 2007 when Nike Skateboarding collaborated with the multi-persona’d hip-hop veteran Daniel Dumile. Interspersed with alter egos Viktor Vaughn and King Geedorah, the emcee best known as MF Doom collaborated with myriad names highlighted by Madlib and Danger Mouse; simply put, Doom destroyed the mid-’00s. A crown jewel punctuating this brilliant period was the coveted MF Doom x Nike SB Dunk High collab, whose menacing vibes we see echoed by Jwdanlklefs’ latest custom job. This ‘MF Doom’ Nike Air Max 1 nails the colorway, piping, bubbly handstyle and materials including the signature ostrich skin. This one is a 1 of 1, but Dank also did five for Marvel’s original Dr. Doom, so check out the MF Doom Air Max 1 in greater detail below and stay tuned for more shortly.

Liberty x Nike WMNS Air Max 1 Available

The ongoing collection between Nike Sportswear’s Womens category and Liberty of London continues with the release of the Nike Air Max 1, seen here in a sick multi-cclored pixel-graphic on the upper. What’s more is that the wild colorway is matched with a muted gum sole, but peep the mudguard and you’ll see the print either going through the transparent material, or the print no the mudguard itself. Definitely a nice pick-up for Air Max 1 fans, so hit up Oneness to get a pair before they’re gone for good.

Nike Air Max 1 Essential White Yellow Black

Safe to say that Mr. Armstrong won’t be making a return to Nike anytime soon, but we can’t help but associate anything with a Black/Yellow to the LIVESTRONG releases that have come out in the past. Regardless of the fact, this Essential-grade Air Max 1 just dropped at Nikestore, and it’s hard to resist considering the original-style color-blocking, and we’d like to be point out that the LIVESTRONG charity is still going strong (so don’t hesitate to chip in when you can). Take another look below and hit up Nikestore for a pair.
