Nike Air Max 1000 Red Atomic Green Release Date
The Nike Air Max 1000 “Red/Atomic Green” continues Nike’s sharp pivot toward fully 3D-printed footwear. Developed with Zellerfeld, this release brings back the model’s original red finish, now paired with a vivid Atomic Green Air unit that immediately pulls focus.
Introduced at ComplexCon, the Air Max 1000 quietly redefined the potential of an Air Max. Without panels, stitching, or overlays, the shoe is constructed with a single, seamless printed shell. The shoe still respects Air Max tradition, but the construction feels more like a prototype than a retro runner.
That tension between past and future is what defines this pair. The sculpted red upper nods to classic Air Max energy, while the exposed green airbag adds a technical, almost industrial edge. It feels intentional, not decorative, and clearly designed to showcase the process.
Nike’s first fully printed Air Max line has grown quickly since debut. Multiple AM1000 releases and October’s Air Max 95000 suggest this isn’t a side project. It’s a long-term direction.
The Nike Air Max 1000 “Red/Atomic Green” will be releasing exclusively through a Zellerfeld raffle; entries for that open December 18th, with winners notified on December 22nd. Retail will be $180.
