The Nike Air Max 98 Gets A ‘Racer Blue’ Colorway
2018 has been a strong start for Nike and their Air Max line. While the Air Max 97 seemed to be a key model for the Swoosh last year, it seems that the Air Max 98 will be getting that same treatment this year. We’ve seen some classic colorways drop earlier in the year and now the vintage runner is getting a super clean ‘Racer Blue’ makeup. It’s only fitting that the Nike Air Max 98 gets so much love, after all, it is the shoes 20th anniversary this year. This spring-ready sneaker is perfect for any rotation. Blue and Volt are used for contrast on this particular model, as the brighter of the two hues can only be found on the front two lace loops as well as the striping and Air branding toward its heel. Its namesake ‘Racer Blue’, owns a bit more real estate on the upper, as it makes up for the entirety of the lace and tongue unit in conjunction with both Swoosh branded elements on the upper.
Make sure you add the Nike Air Max 98 ‘Racer Blue’ to your rotation on May 10th at Finishline.com.
