Nike Air VaporMax

After the seven-year journey from conception to release, the Air VaporMax represents a new era in Nike innovation. To truly capture the feeling of “running on air”, the designers restructured the Air unit to be attached directly to the upper. As you step down, each lug gets pushed into the Air unit, ramping up the pressure. Then, as you step off, the pressure releases creating springy bounce with superior flexibility. Made for runners, the futuristic technology was quickly adopted by the street, bringing this light-as-air feeling to the masses.

The Air VaporMax Flyknit 3 Triple Black ushered in a new chapter in the VaporMax line. Its Air unit was designed to be attached directly to the upper to capture the feeling of running on air. While VaporMax was initially designed for runners, it has been incorporated in other designs to give the light-as-air feeling.

The Nike Air VaporMax Flyknit 3 Triple Black features a stretchable Flyknit upper construction with 2-tone lines of breathability. The VaporMax technology offers more cushioning and lightweight responsiveness, with the lugs creating a bouncy traction. Other design features include Flywire cables to provide more support, rubber pods in high-wear areas for durability, and the strategic engineering that flexes with each stride to create contoured cushioning. Experience a futuristic feel with a space-age design and a tongue label inspired by patches from the Apollo spacesuits.

The Nike Air VaporMax Flyknit 3 Triple Black released in March of 2019 for $190.
