After the success of Nike‘s collaboration with Sony on Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse and Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, with the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG “Origin Story” and the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG ‘Next Chapter’, the two companies continued their partnership in MCU films, including Spider-Man: Far From Home. Look closely, and you’ll notice that Peter Parker wears Nike Air Max 1 sneakers in the white/black/wolf grey-Gunsmoke colourway. And they’re actually pretty epic!
Nike Air Max 1 ‘Wolf Grey’
Released late in 2018, the Tinker Hatfield-designed Air Max 1 ‘Wolf Grey’ features a white mesh upper with colour-blocked Wolf Grey leather and Gunsmoke suede overlays. You’ve seen these before, but probably not in these exact colours. They’re not exactly grails, but they’re not exactly easy to comeby either.
For those who don’t know, the Air Max 1, first released in 1987, was the first sneaker to show off Nike’s revolutionary Air-Sole unit in the heel and has continued to evolve over the years with new colourways and dozens of material variants. Continuing Nike’s rollout of the classic silhouette, the sneaker currently retails for around $120 but already sold out at most retailers across the world.
Peter Parker’s Nike Shoes Spider-Man: Far From Home
In Sony’s Spider-Man sequel, Peter Parker can be seen wearing the Nike Air Max 1 sneakers throughout the video while travelling abroad and interacting with Mysterio, the film’s villain. While it didn’t achieve the popularity of Spider-Verse’s Air Jordan 1, don’t be surprised to see these becoming collectables in the future.
It looks like Peter Parker, Spider-Man, or Sony Pictures have a thing for Nike Air Max 1 sneakers and Jordans. Either way, we love seeing The Webhead rock these cool kicks. Maybe we’ll see him wear Nike sneakers in the upcoming Spider-Man: Brand New Day, too.
