Teal-Accented Youth Sneakers

Nike's Air Max 270 Dusty Cactus Color Scheme is Bold and Exciting

Following the previously released color scheme for Nike's latest Air Max 270 comes the new Dusty Cactus colorway -- a new set of boldly toned sneakers for kids.

The colorway features a black and white upper with the brand's new Dusty Cactus teal color that appears on the pull tab and branded details. Known for picking the most high-quality materials, the brand uses its famous mesh material to keep little feet as comfortable as possible while the shoes are being worn all day. The large Air Max bubble on the heel is a staple of the design, providing a light bounce to any step.

The new Dusty Cactus Air Max 270 is available online now in sizes for babies, toddlers and kids.
