Nike is reviving another sneaker from the turn-of-the-century Alpha Project this year, bringing the Air Max Craze back to their catalog for the first time. This week, a fresh “Laser Orange” style has surfaced for a Summer release.
Nike’s 1999 Alpha Project has been a central focus of their retro releases in the past few years, reviving the often wild and unusual sneakers for a new day. The Air Max Sunder is one of the more recent rereleases, while the Air Presto has been a mainstay in the Nike catalog for two decades. This year, they are rolling out yet another Alpha sneaker, the slingback Air Max Craze, coming soon.
The Air Max Craze was, and is, a highly unusual sneaker from the Nike archives. Originally a performance running shoe built to be as lightweight and minimal as possible, the shoe features no proper heel section, instead opting for a strap that wrap around the rear of each shoe. This week, we have our first look at a new “Laser Orange” edition of the model, which paints the upper in the yellow-orange hue and is paired with light University Blue accents to complete the look.
