Air Max 98

Compared to the stylistic and functional leaps we’ve seen throughout the progression of Nike’s Air Max lineage, the Air Max 98 can be viewed as evolutionary step from its immediate predecessor. The silhouette maintains some of the telltale signs of the 97, including its full-length Max Air unit and the wavy, fluid lines that inform the design of the upper. Here, it’s rendered in white leather, complemented by a navy tongue with orange accents and a black suede mudguard.
