Nike Won't Be Dropping Any Sneakers On Air Max Day This Year

Since it began back in March 2014, Nike's annual Air Max Day celebration has been the launchpad for some of the hottest sneakers of the year. Last year, the highlight was undoubtedly the Sean Wotherspoon x Nike Air Max 97/1, which quickly became the holy grail for many sneakerheads. With that said, according to reports, the Swoosh won't be dropping anything at all this year.

Rescheduling all of its planned releases, including the hotly anticipated Nike Air Max 97 'Neon Seoul', Nike will be launching the Give Fresh Air initiative in partnership with local organisations to build a stronger sense of community.

"With the launch of the Air Max 1 in 1987, a revolution began. In the years since, Nike and “Air” have become synonymous while expanding its loyal following. Although March 26, 1987, marks the beginning of the epic Air Max journey, this Air Max Day launches a new chapter focused on taking action."; explains an official statement. "We know that change happens when people come together. Give Fresh Air is a rally cry to unify sneaker culture around a shared passion to ignite change. Nike and our partners will create ways to give “Air” to support local organizations and champion the power of community.";

Releases originally planned for Air Max Day 2019 will now be dropping over the coming months. Let us know what you think of this news, and while you're here, take a look at the full Nike sneaker range!
