Nike Sportswear Older Kids Air Max 270 GO (GS)

White

First released in 1987, the Nike Air Max premiered some specific innovations that would later pop up again and again. Designed by the up-and-coming Tinker Hatfield, who had only been with Nike since ’85, the original AM was looking to push boundaries with brand-new Max Air cushioning and an architecturally inspired design. On top of new, ultra-soft Air cushioning, the iconic visible Air midsole would draw the eye and show off the tech in style. A few questioning voices believed that Tinker had gone too far, but the result speaks for itself – incredible comfort and a legacy of layered designs that lives on.

Nike have been designing, creating and collaborating on sport and street legends since 1964 – everyone wants a piece of the Swoosh. Their signature logo and "Just Do It" tagline can be seen on clothes, sneakers, boots, and accessories the world over, from football stadiums and basketball arenas to street hangouts and music festivals. With influential technology like Nike Air and style icons such as the classic Swoosh Hoodie, they’ve been setting trends and making waves since forever.

Whether you’re sitting back or stepping out, Nike offer a huge range of comfort and performance designs fit for every occasion.

As the first of the Air Max range created to be a pure lifestyle shoe, Nike went all-in on comfort and streetwear looks with the Air Max 270. It’s named after the 270 degrees of visible Air cushioning in the heel, which was the largest Air Max unit on release, standing at a hefty 38mm. The huge pocket of air provides exceptional cushioning and support, making the 270 a superbly comfortable option for travel and everyday wear, while also catching the eye and screaming iconic Air style from nearly all angles.

Taking cues from the Air Max 93 and Air Max 180, the AM270 served up a hybrid silhouette and breathable mesh upper that placed it squarely between its predecessors and some of the more futuristic Nike offerings, such as the VaporMax. With its focus on comfort and retro-futuristic, innovative lifestyle design, the 270 quickly became a popular choice among sneaker enthusiasts and casual wearers alike.
