Nike's Air Max 1 '87 Sneaker Gets an Ale Brown Colorway
Sportswear giant Nike introduces a new tonal update of the Air Max 1 '87 sneaker model for the Fall season with the Ale Brown colorway palette. The shoes are entirely designed in a tonal scheme that is led by the ale brown hue and gum medium brown.
The construction is highlighted by a blend of suede, leather, and mesh that are accented by a textured camp and Swoosh branding details. To match the tonal look of the branding, it is contrasted by gold upper eyelets and lace tips. All of this sits on top of a gum rubber outsole unit -- the Ale Brown colorway is set to launch online and at select retailers on October 7th.
