Nike introduces a new Sofvi tonal iteration of the Air Max 1 sneaker model defined by bright tones throughout the entire silhouette. The shoes are culture-inspired this time around and made to honor the shoe's original colorway palette. It is defined by red and white tones complete with off-white and gold touches as the accents to nod to the soft vinyl toys that the namesake is based on.
Overall, it features a premium gradient look throughout the upper. The finishing elements include the insoles detailed with graphic accents and typography along the outsoles, and it is all packaged in a box that is adorned with heavy graphics -- this is made to resemble the look of an action figure packaging.
