Nike Air Max 1 '86 OG "Big Bubble Powerwall" HF0551-300

Nike is set to revisit its roots with the re-release of the Air Max 1 ’86 OG “Big Bubble Powerwall.” Originally launched in 2006 as part of the renowned Powerwall series, this model pays homage to Blue Ribbon Sports (BRS), Nike’s earliest chapter. However, the 2024 version comes with a significant twist: the ’86 “Big Bubble” design, an authentic nod to the original Air Max silhouette.

The trainer stands out with a bold Green mesh toe box and a matching nylon base, channelling the vibrant energy reminiscent of the early BRS days. Rich Brown suede mudguards and heel tabs bring in an earthy tone, grounding the brighter elements and staying true to Nike’s legacy.

Grey mid panels provide a subtle yet effective contrast to the Ember Glow Pink Swoosh, adding a dynamic element to the overall look. Retro Nike branding on the tongue and heel completes the nod to the past, keeping the vintage appeal intact. The Sail midsole, featuring the signature visible Air Max unit, adds a touch of aged charm, while the Black rubber outsole delivers dependable grip and durability.

Decked out in a Classic Green and Ember Glow palette, the Air Max 1 ’86 OG “Big Bubble Powerwall” perfectly blends Nike’s rich history with thoughtful updates. This release serves as a celebration of heritage, designed for those who appreciate a piece of the brand’s enduring legacy.
