Previewed ahead of the Swoosh’s fictitious March 26th holiday, the Nike Air Max Genome is set to take over the casual footwear space as it delivers comfortable solutions clad in versatile colorways.

Unlike some of the inaugural options, a forthcoming pair indulges in a simple, but sharp “Black/White” color palette. The mix of synthetic, textile and fabric across the upper harkens back to the early 2000s, while simultaneously fitting into the current sneaker landscape. Branding throughout the shoe delivers stark “White” contrast, which is highlighted at the midsole. Full-length Air Max cushioning, however, opts into a semi-opaque arrangement. Lastly, tread reverts to an understated “Black” color.

An official Nike.com release date is unknown, but this Air Max Genome is likely to quietly launch soon. In the meantime, enjoy images of the pair here below.
