NIKE, NIKE AIR MAX 1, SIZE 9
Rubber, Leather, Cotton, Suede
2005
As a part of the Nike Powerwall pack, the Nike Air Max 1 BRS was manufactured in incredibly limited quantities making it one of the most sought-after in the Powerwall series. BRS - which stands for Blue Ribbon Sports - is celebrated with this incredibly rare and special Air Max 1.
Dressed in a brown suede upper with metallic green accents, the Air Max 1 BRS Powerwall is composed of the colors found on the early BRS models - as metallic green and tan brown suede were often featured. The gray mid panels offer a stark contrast to the pink Swoosh. The pair also features a retro Nike logo.
In 1987, Nike introduced the revolutionary Air Max 1, the first Nike shoe to sport an Air-cushioned sole. Nike entered the 1980s with strong market share of the sneaker market, but by mid-decade, it was clear that they would need bold ideas to retain their edge. To Nike’s luck, legendary footwear designer Tinker Hatfield released the radical Air Max 1 design at the perfect time.
