Nike Air VaporMax 2021 Flyknit

Feel like you’re walking on clouds in the Nike Air VaporMax 2021 Flyknit. Heel-to-toe VaporMax Air cushioning lets you experience a new level of comfort while a stretchy Flyknit upper offers a flexible, supportive feel. Embroidered Swoosh logos and a plastic heel clip combine with optimistic shades of lavender and blue to add a splash of visual intrigue as you glide serenely down the street.

Breathable Support

Supportive Flyknit upper is made from stretchy yarns and creates a striking visual that's seamless, breathable and lightweight.

Walk on Air

Originally designed for performance running, the VaporMax Air unit was our first 1-piece Air unit to run the entire length of a shoe. It allows for smoother transitions and adds lasting cushioning.

Sporty Comfort

Collar sculpts the ankle for a sporty look that feels great while padding on heel adds to the comfort.

The Grind

The speckles in the rubber outsole are made from Nike Grind, which is recycled waste (i.e., the scraps) from the footwear manufacturing process.

Nike Air VaporMax

After the 7-year journey from ideation to release, the Air VaporMax represents a new era in Nike innovation. To truly capture the feeling of “running on air,“ the designers restructured the Air unit to be attached directly to the upper. As you step down, each lug gets pushed into the Air unit, ramping up the pressure. Then, as you step off, the pressure releases creating springy bounce with superior flexibility. Made for runners, the futuristic technology was quickly adopted by the street, bringing this light-as-air feeling to the masses.
