Flax suede leads the upper on this Wmns Air Max 1 '87 'Wheat', layered over sesame overlays and set off by vintage green trim and a coconut milk midsole. The '87 tag marks it as part of Nike's retro line built around the model's 1987 launch proportions, including the visible Air window in the heel that separated the shoe from other running silhouettes at the time. Mesh panels sit underneath the suede for breathability, and the tonal earth mix reads warmer than the shoe's original white and red pairing.
Priced at $150, the Wheat colorway released June 24, 2024, aimed at buyers who lean toward muted, wearable tones rather than the louder color blocking Air Max releases often use. Suede adds texture and durability that the mesh-heavy original didn't have, while the vintage green hits on the eyestay and heel tab break up the tan and cream base without taking attention from the shape of the shoe.
