Nike introduces a new Wheat colorway to join the roster of its signature Air Max Scorpion sneaker model. The bulbous structure is a notable element of the shoe and it is constructed from the brand's Flyknit material that rests on top of the oversized unit.
It is also infused with the Air unit component and comes in a variety of golden brown hues that adorn the entire silhouette. The midsole is done in a slightly translucent finish and it all rests on top of a rubber outsole that is detailed with green accents by the heel and forefoot for a touch of contrast. Rounding out the shoe is the chocolate brown branding at the Swoosh, tongue, and sock lining.
