Nike’s Air Max Summered So Hard, It Became Refreshingly Breezy
Nike's Air Max DN8 sneaker summered so hard, it came back lighter and breezier than ever.
The sportswear brand has given the bulbous Air Max sneaker the ultimate warm-weather update, outfitting it with an even lighter mesh upper. It's now so light that you can see right through it. Literally.
What's more, it lands in the classic "Sail" colorway, an off-white scheme which really took off with, well, Virgil Abloh's Off-White™ x Air Jordan 4 collab.
On the DN8 sneaker, the familiar cream-white touches mingle with these purple-ish brown hints and blacked-out soles. The results? A delicious summer treat for the feet.
Truth be told, this isn't our first time meeting this particular version of the Air Max DN8. Earlier in the spring season, Nike dropped two other colorways, "Dark Hazel" and "Shadow Brown," both featuring the same featherlight build.
Nike has also introduced some other mesh styles ahead of the sizzling-hot season. But these particular pairs scream summer retreat.
Speaking of which, the "Sail" pairs are now available on Footdistrict's website for around $242.
