The Nike Air Max, one of Tinker Hatfield&#8217;s opuses, has gone through a plethora of transformations over the last three decades; and every 26 March, special editions are released commemorating its inception. For the first time, the Air Max Scorpion joins the pantheon, in celebration of its pedigree.<\/p>\n<p>Released in 2022, the youngest member of the family gets dressed in vibrant hues and a multi-material mix, hitherto unseen on its contemporaries. The construction remains standard but the motifs are novel. The FlyKnit upper remains but this time adorned with a neon palette of pink, yellow, and green. A color scheme reminiscent of the staples in the mid-2010s.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore on the higher arches, chenille textile forms the eyestays, tongue, and ankle collar. But it makes its presence felt most on the lateral Swoosh below; although disparately absent on the medial. The earlier-mentioned neon hues make their way down to the signature sole unit, visible through the translucent midsole.<\/p>\n<p>The &#8220;Air Max Day 2023&#8221; remains inconspicuous on the exterior but the party happens inside, on the insoles. There, special commemorative graphics proliferate on the footbed with several nods to &#8220;3.26&#8221; on one pair, with a sunny day depiction on the other.<\/p>\n<p>Information is scant at the time of writing, with only leaked images from <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/k9_itsiant\/status\/1615032867733504021\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">MasterChefIan&#8217;s Twitter<\/a> account as the Rosetta Stone.
