Nike introduces a new iteration of the Air Max TW sneaker model in an Anthracite colorway palette for the season. It is made from a blend of leather and mesh materials throughout the upper. The black palette has repeating linework that is highlighted throughout the upper with branding along the heel in the form of the Niek Air logo.
It continues with a small Swoosh on the lateral side of the shoe. Finally, the Air Max Tailwind-inspired sole unit is paired together with the large Air bubbles around the heel to round out the look. The stealthy new sneaker model has mesh over the tongue for breathability and has yet to release a launch date.
