Patta and Nike are reportedly preparing an updated take on the Air Max 1 ’87. The speculation follows hot on the heels of Patta’s recently announced Air Max Dn8 collaboration, but this upcoming drop is set to dig even deeper into Nike’s archives for inspiration.

About the Patta x Nike Air Max 1 ’87

According to insiders, the Amsterdam-based streetwear mainstay is poised to revive the original Air Max 1 silhouette, pivoting away from the contemporary Big Bubble variant that has dominated recent releases.

Patta’s creative leads, Edson Sabajo and Guillaume “Gee” Schmidt, are said to hold a particular affinity for vintage Nike design—a sentiment reflected in their previous work, including the sought-after “Chlorophyll” iteration from 2009 and the celebrated “Waves” series.

While Nike’s Big Bubble tooling continues to resonate, the appeal of the 1987 original remains strong among dedicated Air Max aficionados. This potential collaboration taps into that nostalgia, with the rumored release expected to arrive in a White, Hyper Crimson, and Pure Platinum color combo.

Release Details

The Patta x Nike Air Max 1 ’87 is projected to launch in Summer 2026 on Patta.nl, Nike.com, and at select retail partners. More images and details should arrive in the coming months. Stay tuned!
