Nike recently treated sneaker fans to the Air Raid Jungle Gym from 1993 (which we covered here at Sneakerjawns), and now we're getting the 2014 remake.
The Air Raid brand has been building some steam this year with the Air Raid Low, Air Raid Jungle Gym, and Air Raid OG, and notably the Nike Air Max 1 featuring in the Live Together Play Together Pack with a Jungle Gym colorway.
On top of that, the 90s silhouette is getting releases at the beginning of the year with the Air Raid 2014 remake and the Air Raid Ray Guns.
The old silhouette is getting some attention from their makers, that is Nike, to give more variations to the classic style. The Nike Air Raid has much lore to it, designed by Tinker Hatfield as an outdoor counterpart to the Air Jordans, featured in commercials with Spike Lee, hence the Live Together Play Together ethos.
The 2014 Black and White Air Raid is not as colorful as the jungle gym, but style doesn't always come with flare.
Let's take a closer look at the upcoming Nike Air Raid 2014 Remake.
Nike's Air Raid 2014 remake follows a black and white colorway, and it is the university red accents that give the design some flare. The iconic OG straps are there of course, in black and red criss-cross needle work.
"AIR RAID" can be observed on the ankle Velcro strap. The timeless "For Outdoor use Only" ethos is kept at the back heel. The black specks on white at the midsoles adds further value to this classic silhouette.
The Nike Air Raid 2014 Remake will be available sometime next year.
