Welcome the new member of the Air Max family.
The storied line has spent almost forty years reinventing sneakers. Not only that, it’s spent that time building a legacy of quality and reliability. The Air Max Metro is the brand’s latest commitment to that long legacy.
The Air Max Metro builds on the line’s impact while creating a new chapter worthy of your attention. For decades, the Air Max line has been the symbol of reliability- be it on the track or as it transitioned into casual wear. Similarly, the shoe has spent the most recent decades becoming the coolest sneaker line around.
Whether it be through iconic appearances on television, becoming the go-to shoe for an underground movement, or even the canvas for the hottest collaborations in sneakers, Nike’s Air Max line has had the pulse on the culture in the way most sneakers have not. Because of that, it has become one of the most successful lines in sneaker history- rightfully so.
But cosigns from graffiti artists in the 1990s and collaborations with atmos only get you so far if your product isn’t delivering. Luckily for sneaker fans, that has never been in doubt with the Air Max, be it the Air Max 1, the Air Max 95, the Air Max 97, or any other silhouette. The Air Max Metro is taking that history, that legacy, and that responsibility in stride. All the while, it is delivering a fresh new take on the iconic sneaker line.
The Air Max Metro is comfort personified. It carries the legacy of the Air Max line in its DNA, as well as the Nike Pegasus line, as well. The sneaker features a full-length visible air unit that, much like the Pegasus Premium, is sandwiched by Cushion 3.0 Foam to provide a comfortable and reliable footwear option for the daily miles ahead. In doing so, the Air Max Metro has a more low-profile look that is on trend with other sneakers on the market.
The sneaker isn’t just about the tooling, though. As a shoe that carries the legacy of some of the most forward thinking designed sneakers, well ever, the Air Max Metro’s use of materials makes for a very stylish shoe. The sneaker’s upper mixes synthetic leather with suede and mesh in a way that looks stylish and trendy. All the while, it also channels the legacy of the Air Max line through its upper. The sneaker is built for your daily miles, without compromising comfort or style.
The Air Max line has spent almost half a century redefining sneakers. It has contributed to athlete performance, it has shifted popular culture, and it has become a symbol of cool. While it could be unfair to put all that pressure, and all that history, on a new sneaker, the Air Max Metro is up to the task. And it has several great debut colorways that prove that to be the case.
The Nike Air Max Metro is available now via Nike in Men’s, Women’s, and Big Kids sizing.
