About Nike Air Max 98
The Nike Air Max 98 is the chunky running sneaker that encapsulates the decade of layered overlays and bold color blocks. The model originally appeared in 1998 and became popular again years later when interest in thicker, technical running silhouettes returned and 1990s running once more became a streetwear statement among a new generation of fans discovering the model for the first time. The upper consists of numerous layered panels in mesh, synthetic material and leather, with a visible Air-unit in the heel that is slightly more prominent than on earlier models. That layering makes the shoe ideal for colorful, contrasting versions, and in principle each panel can receive its own color or material without the silhouette losing its cohesion. In that respect the construction strongly recalls the Air Max 95, although the 98 is more angular and technical in its lines, with sharper transitions between the panels. Who is the Air Max 98 for? The Air Max 98 suits those who prefer a pronounced, technical-looking silhouette with clearly visible details. Pair it with sweatpants or cargo pants for a sporty, contemporary streetwear look. The many panels also make the shoe good conversation material for people who enjoy talking about sneakers. Which colorway do you choose? The many panels provide room for playful color combinations, from subtle to exuberant.
