Readying itself for the fall season, Nike released a new Air Max BW model.
Utilizing the heavy sole with transparent accents that's become iconic to the Air Max, the brand switches it up a bit by adding in a beige bottom that peaks over the sides and an off-gray midsole as well. This helps the tie the rest of the colorway together -- with the wheat-inspired leather and suede making up the majority.
The tone expends onto the new Nike Air Max BW's canvas bits as well and even on the laces. Right through the middle of the upper however there's a deep brown stripe that helps to add some more variance and Nike's brand name appears in the same color on the heel.
