ONE TIME ONLY AIR MAX - CLERKS PACK

One Time Only-two worlds create something new
‘One Time Only’ was the proposal when Nike design duo Richard Clarke and Jesse Leyva presented their new project to Nike's CEO Mark Parker. In fact, the newest project involving Nike Air cushioning technology is unique. It is a convergence of the most recent development in Nike Air cushioning - the Air Max 360 shoe and the iconic predecessor Air Max models that have continuously expanded the possibilities of Nike Air Cushioning.

Every good design starts with a solid foundation: the Nike Air Max 360 sole
Clarke and Leyva decided to capitalize on the fortitude of Air Max 360 shoe technology to create a strong base for their hybrid design. As part of Nike’s commitment to push innovation to new frontiers, the design team dissected a shoe that offers athletes the smoothest and most durable ride ever created, thanks to a Nike Air cushioning component that is visible from every angle. This shoe has no foam, no midsole – just Nike Air.

The upper of the hybrids: iconic Air Max
The Air Max 90, Air Max 95 and the Air Max 97 are three of Nike’s iconic Air Max running shoes to date. “We use our past to create the future”, says Nike Creative Designer of Sport Culture Richard Clarke. Each shoe features the new Max 360 Air Sole unit. “The concept takes iconic designs and combines them with Nike’s most innovative cushioning system to date” says Clarke.

Clerk Pack Colors
Throughout its history, Nike has worked with several collaborating design partners. One of these collaborations is the Clerk Packs in conjunction with select retail partners worldwide.

Leyva and Clarke selected 4 of their favorite clerk pack colorways and applied them to the ‘One Time Only’ silhouettes. They also made use of the identical materials that were originally applied on the Clerk Pack models. The Foot Patrol Air Stab colourway decorates the Air Max 90.The Air Max 95 takes its bacon colored make-up from the Dave’s Quality Meats Air Max 90. The vibrant Air Max 97 uses the Union Stores Air Force 180 color picking. Each example makes use of the identical materials that were sourced for the original Clerk Pack models. The Air Max 360 sports a totally new make up; a multi-colored polka-dot treatment was fashioned to decorate the upper.
