The Nike Flyknit Air Max has landed in Singapore.

This is the first time that Nike has combined their Flyknit construction with a full-length Max Air unit.

Nike introduced Flyknit construction to the world in 2012. The upper is entirely made of polyester yarn that is fed into a proprietary knitting machine. This technology creates little to no waste. The knit varies throughout the upper: it’s more open in areas that need greater flexibility and tighter in areas that need support. The ultralight Nike Flyknit contours to your foot for a comfortable, supportive fit.

The weight is 12.8oz. (362.9 grams) for a men’s U.S. size 10.

Nike Air Max technology is now into its 26th year. The Nike Flyknit Air Max has a full-length Max Air unit that uses a tubular construction to enhance flexibility and put more air underfoot. This is Nike’s most flexible Max Air unit to date. The redesigned Waffle outsole distributes weight more evenly for a smoother ride.

Features and Benefits

Flywire technology woven into the upper integrates with the laces for a dynamic, supportive fit.
Stitch and turn collar provides a snug, comfortable fit.
Pull tab offers easy on and off.
Reflective elements remain visible in low-light conditions.

Midsole
Sculpted cushion midsole combines plush cushioning with springy resilience for impact protection.
Flex grooves are engineered into the midsole for greater forefoot flexibility.
Full-length Max Air unit uses a tubular construction to enhance flexibility and put more air underfoot. It provides maximum cushioning for a smooth transition through foot strike.

Outsole
Translucent, environmentally preferred rubber in a Waffle outsole provides durability and great multi-surface traction.
Flex grooves align with the Max Air unit for a smoother, more natural range of motion through foot strike.
BRS 1000 carbon rubber in the heel for maximum abrasion resistance in this high-wear area.
