Exotic Textile Retro Sneakers

Nike's Air Max 94 Receive a Snakeskin and Cowhide Makeover

— August 22, 2018 — Fashion
Sportswear label Nike introduces a new iteration of its Air Max 94 silhouette in a new exotic textural design. This Air Max footwear model has yet to make a loud comeback, but the latest version boasts bold accents. The Air Max 94 sports a multi-textile upper in a neutral color palette that captivates attention through its animalistic prints. The uppers deliver a beige colored base crafted from leather materials, followed with a textured mudguard in tan hues. The snakeskin is seen through paneling details at the quarter panel and branding details are finished in cowhide materials as it adorns the label's signature Swoosh.

Additionally, there are soft suede details found at the toe cap and heel area with the entire piece finished with a thick off-white midsole and the iconic Air Max unit. The latest iteration of the Air Max 94s are available for purchase for the price of $140 USD online at Renarts.
