[Nike](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-max-portal-1) continues to grow its roster of sneakers with the new Air Max Porter silhouette that is defined by its futuristic aesthetic. It is essentially a chunkier iteration of the Air Max Dn shoes with support backed by the brand's Air technology instead of the Dynamic Air.

The upper is detailed with a mesh rippled texture that is reminiscent of the [Air Max 97](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cosmic-unity-3) shoes but the beefy silhouette nods to the brand's [Air Max Sunder](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-max-sunder). It comes in a series of bright colorway palettes that blends together hues of neon green, black, red, white, mauve, and blue. Branding can be seen in a tonal contrast in the form of the Swoosh on the side fo the shoe, the forefoot, and the tongue tab.
