Originally released in 1999, the return of the Air Max Tailwind 4 celebrates the 20th anniversary of the silhouette. Unlike the NYC streetwear icon’s take on the model, this forthcoming iteration bears almost no overt color blocking. Simple executions of the pattern find their way across all accents of the upper: overlays, unders, and tongues with even piping and stitching following the earth tone palette. To complete the design, pops of Volt are featured on the heel tab and outsole.
Grab a detailed look at the pair below and expect them to arrive at select retailers as well as Nike.com on May 24th. The retail price tag is set at $180 USD.
