Nike Air Classic BW Textile – Granite Grey/Orange

 Nike Air Classic BW Textile - Granite Grey/Orange

First appeared in 1991, the ‘Big Window’ Nike Air Max – also known as the Max ‘91 or Max IV – had a tremendous success & had been very popular since then among sneakerheads. And now, they are re-releasing it in a new solid colorway which is more subtle than the celebrated ‘OG’ version but still with an ACG feel to it. These kicks are made of textile, suede and leather upper along with a retro nylon mesh and safari print on the tongue. White & Black accents are also included into the design and of course the visible “Big Window” air unit. These are now available at Caliroots. View more images after the jump.

Nike Air Classic BW Blue Sapphire

The Nike Air Classic BW Blue Sapphire has been re-issued. This shoe was first created in the 1990s. The latest issue has a fresh colorway to keep up with the times. JD Sports sells this shoe for $120. This is a good bargain for a running shoe.

The Nike Air Classic BW starts with a black toe box in fabric. The double layer of mudguard is in black and white. The perimeter of the mud guard forms an interesting border of black and white. The frame of the shoe lace hole is in black leather and it defines the midsection too. The black colored tongue ends with a blue colored tip and blends in with the blue collar at the ankle.

The shoe has a collar at the ankle. The bright blue is a nice accent. The white stripe aligns itself with the white layer of the mud guard. The Nike swoosh runs over the striped mudguard. Nike’s running shoes have thick midsoles and this pair has one with blue accents. The blue strip in the midsole coordinates with the blue colored collar of the shoe. The back tab has a strip of black that is decorated by blue lettering of “Air Max”. This is a good looking running shoe. (Images)

The Nike Air Classic BW will return in Jan. 2009. The website eBay has some ads on these shoes from overseas sellers. This shoe will be officially coming into the US in Jan. 2009. Look for the shoes at Nike website in Jan. 2009.

The toe box is in black canvas. It is boxed in by a black “handle” like frame that forms the panels for the shoe lace holes. A small portion of the lace holes are on a blue colored collar of the ankle. The black shoe lace threaded through the blue collar looks good. The blue accent is seen again in the Nike swoosh and in the midsole. The high midsole of the shoe is extended on the shoe upper by a trick of the design. The blue swoosh and black leather to look fused together as part of the midsole. The midsole carries an image of a lateral inversion of the blue Nike swoosh. The tip of the tongue is blue and the nice blue continues into the inner lining of the shoe.

The outsole has black, blue and white colors. There are rectangle shaped studs in an unusual arrangement. These are rough to provide good grip on the ground. This is a good shoe in a mix of fabric and leather.
