Air Max 1 Market Overview

The Air Max 1 launched in 1987 as the first Nike shoe to feature visible Air cushioning. Designed by Tinker Hatfield, who was inspired by the Centre Pompidou in Paris, the AM1 revolutionized sneaker design by exposing the technology within.

The 2023 "Big Bubble" release brought back the original larger Air unit, creating massive hype and premium resale prices. Collaborations with Patta, Travis Scott, and Concepts continue to drive collector interest.

Current resale prices range from $120-180 for general releases, with collaborations and vintage pairs reaching $200-600+.
