BMF Style: Because balling is more than the roundball – it’s the lifestyle that surrounds the ball. BMF Style brings you the best styles in sportswear and fashion apparel for when you’re away from the court, whether you’re checking for new gear or checking for your favorite NBA players’ pieces outside of the locker room.

Thirty years strong, the Nike Air Max family gets better generation after generation. Air bags have seen many shapes, sizes and iterations. Uppers have been dressed in leather, canvas, suede, Hyperfuse, tape, Vac-tec and Engineered Mesh, updating each classic with modern technology to fulfill contemporary needs. Now Nike Sportswear introduces the Nike Air Max Breathe Collection, designed to keep your feet free from the oppressive summer heat.

Drawing insight from the on-the-go Brasilian lifestyle in which one might find themselves on the beach one minute and pounding pavement the next, the Air Max Breathe collection deconstructs iconic silhouettes, transforming classic sneakers into ultra-breathable, lightweight shoes. To produce the most breathable Air Max models to date, the shoes have been stripped to their core essentials—layers of reinforcement removed and heavy materials jettisoned. Spacer mesh is used to create pockets of space between the upper materials to allow for increased airflow.

The pack innovations include taped seams, moisture-wicking linings, open-mesh uppers, elastic laces, soft heel counters, and natural motion tooling, combining to deliver iconic silhouettes true to their roots and built for summer. Contoured for comfort, the Nike Air Max Breathe Collection modernizes the summer wardrobe by making more with less.

By removing the traditional leather, suede or synthetic toe overlay, the Air Max 1 Breathe sheds weight and improves breathability. A dynamic fit tongue ensures the foot stays secure and moves with the body, while an updated phylon tooling makes the sole ultra-light and super comfortable.
