Parra for Nike Air Max 1

Many people have been waiting for the news on these special Air Max 1’s. Initially though to be part of the celebration of Patta’s 5th anniversary last year, since they released 4 different colorways of the Air Max 1 to commemorate the occasion. What we thought was going to be the final release of the 5th pair we now find out is a actually a Parra shoe. We saw sneak peeks of the shoe in videos and at the Magic tradeshow in Las Vegas but now we know they will be released. It looks like it will be hard to get our hands on these as they will be limited to Patta. Designed by Parra the upper of the shoe is made up of a mix of suede and mesh with a chenille swoosh. The Parra logo is put onto the tongue in Blue along with the laces and upper eyelets. The shoeliner will contain special graphics from Parra. The shoe is finished off with a special multi-colored outsole. Going to be sole at Patta on March 13th this limited shoes will make it to very select Nike Sportswear accounts as well. Better call in your favors as this shoe will be hard to grab. If you know a sneakerstore who will be public the sneaker, please post at comment.  A detailed look at the Air Max 1 follow after the jump.
