The piece

  • The Nike Air Max 1 EasyOn in Smoke Grey/Racer Blue is Tinker Hatfield's 1987 original - the first shoe to show the Air unit through a window in the midsole - rebuilt so a toddler can put it on unaided.
  • The laces stay for looks; a top loop and hook-and-loop strap do the work.
  • Mesh and synthetic leather upper in smoke grey in the original Air Max 1 paneling Top loop integrates with a hook-and-loop strap for a wide, easy opening Classic lace-up appearance retained, with no laces to actually tie Vis

Nike

Phil Knight and Bill Bowerman started Blue Ribbon Sports in 1964 and renamed it Nike in 1971, after the Greek goddess of victory. It is great at turning sport into myth: a waffle-iron midsole poured in a kitchen, then Air, then a logo that reads as civic furniture. The Cortez and Air Force 1 became neighborhood shoes; Jordan made a basketball silhouette a cultural object. Fun fact: student Carolyn Davidson drew the swoosh for $35; Knight later gave her stock.
