The day of the fireworks is back again after a year! Nike Air Max 1 Independence Day will be a hot treat for the Patriots and the classic Air Max lovers. This kick will show off the original flag of the United States, a chic design by Betsy Ross. That old American flag might not be relevant these days, but it’s a path for the current stars and stripes. It has details from the 1700s and only thirteen stars forming a full circle. That’s the original flag we know of. If you skipped your history classes, then seeing this drastic change of the red-blue flag is a shock to you.
Right after the independence from Great Britain, America had original 13 states. Through years now there are 50 states so the “Old Glory” shows off 50 stars. Pride and solidarity are always present in all of the modifications, no matter how many stars or stripes. Follow @FastSoleUK for more Air Max dose.
It’s said that Betsy’s first flag design takes fuel from a sketch by George Washington himself. On June 14th, 1777, the Second Continental Congress passed a resolution. It had thirteen stripes alternating red and white, and thirteen stars creating a new constellation on a blue background. The original 13 British colonies get a nod from the old flag via the stars and stripes. The primary colours are still the central theme for the new flag, so this Air Max doesn’t dare to change that!
A crisp white mesh underlay gets support from dusty grey nubuck overlay and heel. Navy blue Swoosh and brandings, crimson red mudguard and inner lining, and white Air Max midsole and heel finish the classic look.
A bold flag embroidery pops on the heel with pride and “Old Glory” vibes. Nike Air Max 1 Independence Day releases soon via listed UK and European retailers. Grab it to show your patriotic side.
