NIKE AIR MAX

In 1987, Nike took one of their biggest risks as a company and trusted innovator, Tinker Hatfield with a sneaker design inspired by a tubular scaffolding system he saw in France. The design featured a visible air pod which previously had never been done before and the fear was that if the shoe was released, the bubble would pop and ruin Nike’s reputation as a manufacturer. However, Nike decided that they would take the risk, and with that, the Nike Air Max was born. It became an instant classic and one of the most worn shoes over the past four decades.  

Today, Nike continues on their innovative path by helping people walk on air. This has seen a wide range of mens, womens, youth, kids and infant shoes being released in all sorts of colourways and material finishes. At Stirling Sports we stock one of the biggest ranges in NZ with all the top designs and models you could want, including Air Max 90, 95, 97, 97 SE, and 270s.
