Nike Set To Debut Groundbreaking 3D-Printed Air Max 1000

Over 250 brands are set to gather at the Las Vegas Convention Center this upcoming weekend for the latest ComplexCon festival. The event is known for its combination of art, fashion, culture, and music. However, one of the most standout participants is sportswear giant Nike, which has just revealed its plans for the two-day event.

One of the most talked about attractions is the unveiling of the Nike Air Max 1000, an innovative 3D-printed sneaker in collaboration with 3D-printing pioneer Zellerfeld. The design of the groundbreaking shoe mimics the Air Max 1 silhouette, blending originality with new technology. Attendees will be able to see the futuristic footwear close up at the  Air Max 1000 Experience space. Fans will also have the chance of becoming one of the select few to win a pair of limited-edition shoes.

“As an innovator, what’s most exciting to me about the Air Max 1000 are the new solutions we can achieve with next-level manufacturing,” John Hoke, Nike’s Chief Innovation Officer, said in a statement. “It’s control, times precision, times expression — all of which are vital to sport and design. When those variables are multiplied at once, the future of our product really does feel unlimited.”

Additionally, outside of the 3D sneaker, Nike treats fans to various collaborations and exclusive drops, including Travis Scott’s Cactus Colosseum installation. Visitors can also explore designs from Stash, which features upcoming Air Force 1 and Air Max 95 collaborations, and Lil Yachty’s Concrete Boys Air Force 1.
