Nike's '87 line takes its name from the Air Max 1's 1987 launch, reproducing the shoe's classic visible Max Air window rather than any of the tooling changes added over the decades since. The Wmns 'Aura' colorway, released November 7, 2023, dresses that shape in a denim upper toned in a soft aura pink, with midnight navy panels at the mudguard and heel and pale ivory carrying through the midsole and laces.
At $150, 'Aura' sits in the '87 line's usual price range, aimed at buyers drawn to the original silhouette rather than a performance update or a heavily reworked upper. The denim construction gives the pastel palette a slightly heavier, more textured feel than the smooth leather Nike used on the shoe when it first launched.
