Original Story (05/22/25): Kids of Immigrants is back with a third colorway of their Nike Air Max SNDR collaboration, following the release of the first two colorways at the tail end of 2024.
This new Air Sunder Max colorway from the LA-based collective features a concrete grey nylon ripstop upper wrapped in a light blue, grid-like plastic cage, resembling the longitude and latitude lines of a globe to represent global unity. This detail references the globe graphics commonly found on international prepaid phone cards that immigrants and children of immigrants often use to call loved ones back home. The suede toe caps come in a navy blue hue, while underfoot sits a black midsole with a speckled arch shank plate.
While the first two colorways drew inspiration from sunrise and sunset, this third colorway nods to the moonlight, paying homage to those who work the graveyard shift. Judging by its name, “Concrete Sky,” we speculate that this colorway also nods to the metaphorical glass and concrete ceilings that prevent people of color (especially women) from advancing in their careers. Once this seemingly impenetrable barrier is broken, the blue skies of an equitable future come into view.
The Kids of Immigrants x Nike Air Max SNDR “Concrete Sky” is slated to drop in the coming weeks on the Kids of Immigrants website, SNKRS, and at select retailers. Grab an early look below and stay tuned to Modern Notoriety for updates.
Update (06/27/25): Feels Like Home, the creative studio behind the KOI x Nike Air Max SNDR, has announced that the “Concrete Sky” colorway will not be releasing commercially in an interview with Urban Syndicate. Instead, the will be F&F exclusive and will be used to help generate awareness around immigrants rights. Only 200 pairs are rumored to exist. Check out the latest photos below.
