Nike has launched the Air Max 1000, its inaugural fully 3D-printed sneaker, designed with Zellerfeld, a specialist in 3D printing. The sneaker is a reinterpretation of the classic Air Max 1, originally released in 1987. It made its first appearance at ComplexCon in Las Vegas, showcased in bright red, but will be available in Oat and Black colorways. The Air Max 1000 features a molded construction from zellerFOAM TPU, eliminating visible stitching and glue lines, and offers a sustainable manufacturing approach by using less material than traditional methods.
The sneaker, achieved in partnership, debuted at the ComplexCon last year in Las Vegas, where it was teased in a solid bright red colorway.
The limited public release is scheduled for August 19. Gear up if you are in tune with the idea of the technologically advanced version of the Air Max 1.
Nike has created the Air Max 1000 in collaboration with German manufacturer Zellerfeld, which specializes in 3D printing.
The latter, according to Nike, uses less material than conventional shoe-making methods, which should make the Air Max 1000 not just an inventive but also a sustainable choice.
