Nike Air Max 1 86 Jackie Robinson

Nike honours the impact and legacy of professional baseball athlete Jackie Robinson with a special-edition Air Max 1 ‘86. The first baseman broke the colour barrier in 1947 when he became the first Major League Baseball player of African-American descent in the modern era, defying the odds despite the widespread discrimination. This Nike Air Max 1 ‘86 “Jackie Robinson outfits the iconic sneaker in the Brooklyn Dodgers team colours, further commemorating the historic milestone.

This exclusive colourway features a dark blue perforated nubuck base reinforced by suede overlays covering the midfoot and rear. Crisp white leather materials shore up the mudguard, accompanied by the PU midsole below. The Swooshes on the sides flaunt an intricate feather-like embroidery. Metallic gold accents highlight the topmost eyelet, heel Nike Air label, and the “42” lace dubrae. The legendary “42” jersey number also appears on the diamond-shaped detail on the tongue, a nod to the baseball diamond. Further dedication appears on the sockliners. The visible big bubble nestles on the heel, propped up by a gum waffle sole that delivers an elegant touch.
