About this product
Nike celebrates the genius of sneaker design with the Nike Air Max 87 'Tinker Sketch to Shelf'. This remarkable shoe pays tribute to Tinker Hatfield, a designer who transformed the sneaker industry with his innovative ideas. Tinker started as an architect for Nike in 1981 but made his mark in footwear design with the 1987 launch of the Air Max 1, the first shoe to showcase the Air Max technology openly.
The "Sketch to Shelf" edition draws directly from Tinker’s original sketches for the Air Max 1, presenting a unique blend of art and sport. The design features mudguards, the iconic Swoosh, and overlays in a sketchy aesthetic. This gives the sneaker a vibrant, unfinished look, reminiscent of a prototype pulled directly from the drawing board.
This model is not just a visual masterpiece; it embodies the essence of creativity and innovation. Key features of the Nike Air Max 87 'Tinker Sketch to Shelf' include:
- Sketch-style detailing that showcases Tinker Hatfield’s artistic roots, with vibrant colors layered over a blank canvas, appealing to sneaker lovers and collectors alike.
- An iconic Air Max unit providing exceptional cushioning and comfort, perfect for both everyday wear and casual outings.
Additional details highlight Tinker’s signature on the heel along with the phrases "Sketch, Property of Nike, Not For Resale" on the sockliner. The translucent outsole, adorned with sketch lines, adds an extra layer of uniqueness to this already striking sneaker. The Nike Air Max 87 'Tinker Sketch to Shelf' is not just footwear; it's a piece of sneaker history, making it a must-have for any serious sneakerhead or Nike aficionado.
