A white Air Max 1 is about the safest shoe you can grab. Then Patta drops a rippled mudguard on it, throws a single bright-red swoosh over the top, and suddenly everyone’s looking again. That’s exactly what this Patta x Nike Air Max 1 “Hyper Crimson” (II7055-100) pulls off.
Patta’s Waves line was impossible to miss in 2021 and 2022: the same Air Max 1, but with a redrawn mudguard full of ripples, like a wave rolled across it. That one detail changed the whole silhouette. For 2026 the run returns as an anniversary drop, and this is one of them. Pure Platinum and white as the base, a cream sole underneath, and the whole thing stays lowkey until you hit the swoosh.
The swoosh is the only thing shouting
And that’s the trick. The upper is quiet grey-white, clean, almost basic. The Hyper Crimson swoosh pulls everything toward it, with small red hits on the heel and under the sole. Patta ties that colour to Dutch pride — it’s the same bold tone you associate with the Netherlands. Look closely and there’s a small embroidered mini-swoosh on the white leather wave, the kind of detail you only clock once it’s in your hand.
That bracelet isn’t a throw-in
Our title says “With Bracelet” for a reason. Every pair comes with a pouch holding a bracelet printed with the Surinamese flag, a nod to the roots of Patta’s founders. It’s not a gimmick that ends up in a drawer; it’s the kind of detail that makes a collab stick. You’re not just buying a shoe, you’re buying the story around it.
Wearing it is easy. A white AM1 slots into almost any rotation: under straight denim, cargos, a plain pair of trousers. That one red swoosh means you need little else — let the shoe do the work. Clean fit, done.
Hype-wise the needle sits high. The Hypescore is 81, which is ATOMIC: the most charged tier, so this pair is still throwing off serious energy. Retail landed around 150 euros. Right now we track it at 14 shops, roughly 125 to 339 euros depending on size and whether you’re looking at a regular store or a resale platform. Heads up: every listing we see is priced in euros — there are no GBP or USD offers on this one at the moment, so UK and US buyers should factor shipping and import on top. Grail or Bail? For a clean anniversary Patta, most of the room is leaning Grail.
And that’s where the search starts. Before you check out, line up the sizes and the shops side by side, because on a wide drop like this the gap between the cheapest and priciest listing mostly comes down to where you look. Compare the prices on Solezilla and grab it from whoever has your size sharpest.
