Emerging in England in the early 2000s, grime can be said to have had the same bumpy road to recognition as the Air Max BW. In the Adidas Superstar Damen Gold same way that the Big Window was neglected by Nike, grime music was overlooked by the British mainstream in some part due to its lack of recognition for emerging music, culminating in the #BritsSoWhite fiasco this year at the BRIT Music Awards.
What’s worse, it took an outsider, Kanye West, to divert British attention back to grime when he invited the likes of Stormzy, Jammer and Novelist onto the stage for his “All Day” debut performance at last year’s BRIT Awards. Grime’s poster boy and co-founder of the Boy Better Know label, Skepta, was also on stage that Nike Air Max Thea Mujer night.
That the banner holder of grime — who also recently signed Drake to his label — was able to gain Nike’s seal of approval is not Asics Gel Lyte 5 Dames only a marker of the Swoosh’s foresight, but it was also a masterstroke in stimulating sales amongst lovers of a particular music genre.

Nike has had some successful examples of this strategy in the past: Nelly’s 2002 single “Air Force Ones” spurned a sneaker buying frenzy upon its release; and when Fat Joe was shown buying 24 pairs of Air Force 1s at the MTV Video Music Awards, the sneaker was completely sold out at most stores across the nation the very next day. Just imagine how the Air Max BW’s popularity would skyrocket if both Skepta and Drake wore it onstage.
Looking back on 29 years of Air Max history, it’s apparent that not all members of the lineage can achieve the same degree of greatness Adidas ZX Flux Womens Black at the Air Max 1, 90, 95 and 97. Much like a music concert, not every member of the troupe gets a solo performance center stage, Nike Air Max 95 Womens but there are those in the chorus who fill out the harmony, making the sum greater than its parts.
This much can be said of the Nike Air Max BW and its cousins, the Air Max Burst, Air Max2, Air Max Deluxe, Air Max 2000, Air Max Majikan, Air Max Specter and the like — nobody can deny the part that they had to play in making the Air Max line what it is today. However, for the Big Window, 2016 is already shaping up to be the banner year it never had, with Nike bringing to market a flurry of new colorways in the lead-up to Air Max Day. With a promising lineage, an overlooked but colorful history, and all the chops to make it as a standalone design, we’re putting our cards on the Nike Air Max BW this Nike Air Huarache Mujer year.
