Nike recently unveiled a new Wolf Grey colorway palette that decorates its dynamic Air Max Scorpion sneaker model for the season. The palette is detailed with accenting use of a bright Volt and Dark Smoke Grey. The upper is made from the lightweight Flyknit material, which adds breathable elements to the shoe.
It is detailed with contrasting stitched Swooshes on the upper and held in place by the Flywire lacing system. More details can be seen in the form of the mini Swooshes that are marking the toe box section, the tongues, printed insoles, and printed accents on the heel tags. It all sits on top of the bulbous full length Air Max sole unit founation.
