In 2024, Nike will once again release the "BRS" version of the Nike Air Max 1 Powerwall. The popular design, which was first made available to the public in 2006, as an integral component of the limited edition "Powerwall" collection, is rumored to be making a triumphant return in 2024, this time in the form of the "Big Bubble" style from 1985.

This information, which was provided by Bubblekoppe, a company that is reputed for its reliable views on matters related to the Air Max, suggests that the legendary shoe will not simply be a plain reissue. In fact, the "Big Bubble" touch is a tribute to the design philosophy behind the initially released iteration of the Air Max sneaker, providing the shoe with a more noticeable and vintage-inspired air cushion.

The iconic piece from 2006 distinguishes itself owing to its unique color scheme, along with the superior-quality components used in its construction. It has a luxurious brown suede mudguard as well as a heel, which creates a lovely contrast with the vibrant green mesh toe and complementing nylon textile foundation that it has.

The design has a prominent red leather Swoosh that cuts across the sides, while a gray felt mid-panel accent lends dimension to the overall appearance. The model's legacy is honored with marking that reads "Nike Air" stitched in green on the heel of the shoe, alongside a vintage white tongue tag that features an orange Swoosh and a traditional "Nike" emblem.

As proven by the fact that the lemonade-inspired versions were re-released in 2020, Nike is no stranger to re-releasing past versions of the Powerwall Air Max 1 models. Nike's much-loved Air Max series was inspired by the revolutionary Nike Air Max 1. Therefore, Swoosh notes the model's genesis as,

"Sure, Air Max 1 started as a running shoe, but you can't keep innovation contained. Adopted by hip-hop culture, this runner with a controversial exposed Air unit could be found anywhere from the heart of Brooklyn to the streets of London. Its cutting-edge design and striking colorways, to this day, are celebrated year after year.”
