As previously reported, the HUF x Nike Air Max 1 from 2004 is making its return in 2024 for its 20th anniversary. However, there’s more. Along with the OG green version, the shoe will also be dropping in new orange and pink colorways.
The HUF x Nike Air Max 1 is cemented in history as the first-ever HUF x Nike collab. Less than two years after opening his first skate shop in San Francisco, Keith Hufnagel was offered the rare opportunity to work with the Swoosh on a shoe, kicking off a partnership that has stood the test of time.
The green and grey Air Max 1 is what ended up releasing back in 2004, alongside a hyperstrike version with the San Francisco skyline on the heels that was limited to 24 pairs. However, two other samples were created in the design process, a grey/pink and grey/orange colorway. These sample colorways will now be releasing to the public for the first time ever.
The OG green pair will be the most widely available of the three colorways, releasing via HUF online, on SNKRS, and at select retailers. The orange pair will be slightly more limited, available via HUF and select retailers in North America. The pink pair will be the most limited of the three, releasing exclusively in Japan. Unlike the 2004 pairs, these new pairs will feature cracked leather on the mudguard, creating a pre-aged look. The shoes come packaged in a co-branded box, alongside extra black laces and a metallic Bones the dog keychain.
Bones was Keith Hufnagel’s chihuahua, who would often be found chilling at the original HUF store in San Francisco. The campaign for this HUF x Nike Air Max 1 release is centered around Bones and his adventures.
The HUF x Nike Air Max 1 pack will launch on June 15th via HUF in-store (via SNKRS Pass in Los Angeles and San Francisco) and online. A wider release at retailers in their respective regions is set for June 22nd. Grab a look at all three pairs below.
