Nike Air Max 2012 'Mango' Gives the Classic Sneaker a New Makeover

— January 4, 2012 — Fashion
Sneaker enthusiasts will immediately notice that makers of the Nike Air Max 2012 'Mango' have revamped the classic model with a new look for the upcoming year.

The Nike Air Max 2012 'Mango' is one of the many new colorways that will be joining the brand's titled model. Interestingly, the sneakers employ a design that's both different and familiar. Different because the Air Max model now has the Hyperfuse woven webbed upper, but familiar because this design has been seen on Nike's Free+ line. What stays the same is the clear air bubble sole, which is pleasing to the eye.

While the new Nike Air Max may look the same as the Free+ models, it's a nice change to the look and is more visually stunning than its predecessors.
