The Nike PHANTACi Air Max 1 Makes Beautiful Music

Leave it to Taiwanese singing sensation Jay Chou to come up with a great shoe to celebrate the launching of his store PHANTACi. The Nike PHANTACi Air Max 1 takes all the great things that have made Nike famous,and adds super cool touches of awesomeness to round it out.

Nicknamed the ‘The Grand Piano’ because its exterior is designed to appear similar to that of a grand piano. The Nike PHANTACi Air Max 1 is probably going to be the hottest shoe around come spring, get it early is all I have to say.
