The Nike Air Max 1 LV8 ‘Dark Teal Green’ differentiates itself from the original 1987 model by ditching the mesh and synthetic suede materials in favor of a fully leather upper construction. A clean white base is complemented by neutral grey overlays, as well as striking dark teal accents on the eyelets, Swoosh, and mudguard. In addition to the traditional Nike branding on the woven tongue tag and heel, an embroidered mini Swoosh adorns the lateral forefoot, adding to the sneaker's appeal. Furthermore, the innovative Max Air unit, which has a significant place in the shoe's history, works in conjunction with a lightweight polyurethane midsole for optimal comfort and support.
