Nike prepares to celebrate Air Max Day on March 26th with a special limited-edition Air Max 1 card holder. It is inspired by the iconic sneaker model and nods to the original design from 1986. The classic Royal colorway decorates the card holder starting with a white base foundation adorned with university blue on top for contrast.
The notable Swoosh branding details the wallet along with the shoe's Air bubble unit. It appears to be a flattened variation of the actual shoe itself. It has a plethora of functions including the cash sleeve to effectively hold bills along with fice card slots to keep everything else organized. It is a compact wallet that celebrates the legacy of Nike's Air Max.
