Air Max 1 Joins The Nike N7 Roster

Nike’s N7 collection is back, this time honouring Indigenous baller Alissa Pili, who just crushed it and landed a Nike Basketball contract! Air Max 1 joins the Nike N7 Roster, and the best part? A portion of the proceeds goes back to organizations supporting healthy communities, which is a major win-win.

Culture Meets Classic

The annual Nike N7 collection is about to drop, and it’s looking fire. This year, the highlight is the iconic Air Max 1 ’87, refreshed in a stunning new colourway. The N7 collection celebrates Indigenous athletes making positive waves in their communities, and this Air Max 1 is a tribute to their impact.

This new silo comes in a breathtaking blend of light bone, black, dusty cactus, bright mandarin, tour yellow, and sesame. The upper features a sleek black suede mudguard with intricate stitchwork and thick ribbon laces, adding a traditional yet fresh vibe. N7 logos proudly adorn the tongue and insole, while a special barb of Swoosh logos sits at the heart of the emblem.

Meanwhile, Nike’s N7 initiative isn’t just about looking good. Through limited releases like this, Nike channels proceeds to organizations promoting activity and exercise in Native communities.

And speaking of athletes, shoutout to Alissa Pili, the latest Nike N7 athlete and Minnesota Lynx star. From her roots in Anchorage to shining on the courts for USC and Utah, Pili represents Polynesian and Indigenous people in the WNBA, embodying the spirit of Nike’s N7 mission.

Style Hack

This shoe’s got a burst of sunshine with that light orange, so pick up a pair of joggers in a similar shade for a clean, coordinated look. But don’t be afraid to experiment! A teal or turquoise jogger could pull out the blue accents for a more unexpected but fire combo!
