The brand-new Nike Air Max 270 Bowfin has served as a modern-day canvas for many a classic Nike ACG-style colorway, and for good reason. With its heavily-layered upper inspired by the classic Riverspike 2, it takes OG ACG construction and adds a large Air Max 270 heel bubble for modern-day style and comfort. Now, the Bowfin is taking its Riverspike inspiration a step farther by using one of its original colorways for a new release. A combo of red and black mesh, nylon, and ripstop material grace the textured upper, while a “Light Zitron” on the collar and midfoot provide a striking pop of contrast. The wild and heavily detailed upper is then tied together by a simple black textured midsole — and a large green heel Air Max unit completes the look alongside a rugged black and yellow outsole. Retailing for $160 USD, you can expect these new Bowfins to release on October 11th at the retailers listed below.
