In 2017, Nike held a competition in which they chose 12 RevolutionAIRS to design their own Air Max. Gaining the most votes in Nike’s Vote Forward, the design of store owner, Sean Wotherspoon, was chosen to be the new Air Max. His contest-winning hybrid, the Air Max 1/97 Sean Wotherspoon releases on Air Max Day 2018 alongside the OFF-WHITE x Air Vapormax.
As the word “hybrid” suggests, the Air Max 1/97 Sean Wotherspoon has a mix of features from both the Air Max 1 and Air Max 97. You can’t miss the recognizable Air Max 97 upper. Just below, comes an Air Max 1 sole with a red air unit.
The pattern of colorful corduroy stitched together will look great once they start to fray. The wear gives the shoe more character. That also means the shoe will last a long time in your collection.
The corduroy upper was inspired by the Nike hats from the 80’s. Another 80’s inspired feature is the velvety material on the inside of the shoe, on the sock-liner and inside of the tongue. When you buy the shoes, you get four sets of different colored laces. You also get playful velcro patches and a corduroy bust bag with the shoe.
Today, my size of the Nike Air Max 1/97 Sean Wotherspoon costs $1,000 on StockX, what about yours?
According to Hypebeast, “The initial drop sold out in seconds.” As far as we know from Nike, the product will release on the SNKRS app. So prepare yourself for the next release of the Nike Air Max 1/97 Sean Wotherspoon on the SNKRS app on March 26 at 10 a.m. EDT. Here are some tips!
There are also some early links for online raffles to keep an eye on until the 26th:
Don’t cry if you didn’t get the shoe this time! Don’t cry if you didn’t get the shoe this time! Keep your eyes open for good deals online if you really want the Sean Wotherspoon. It won’t matter even if you buy a very near deadstock. For less than the cost of the deadstock one, it’ll still look good, because remember these shoes are made to fray.
