About the Nike Air Max 1 Essential "Flax British Tan"

The Air Max 1 Essential 'Flax British Tan' keeps to a tonal, leather-driven palette: light bone across the base, flax on the eyestay and heel, and British Tan overlays through the mudguard, closed out with black trim on the eyelets and outsole. As an Essential colorway, it uses Nike's standard leather construction rather than the suede finishes found on several of the family's special-edition colorways. Nike released it September 20, 2024 for $140.

A white midsole carries the build, holding the visible Air-sole window in the heel unchanged from the rest of the family. Neutral, wear-with-anything colorways like this one make up a large share of the Essential range, which sits at a lower price point than the Premium and Ultra lines while keeping the same tooling and cushioning. Flax and tan tones like these sit closer to workwear than the brighter seasonal pairs released elsewhere in the lineup.
