It has been well over three decades since the Nike Air Max 1 made its debut, and Nike continues to use it for inspiration when designing some of its newer sneakers. The Nike Air Max Dawn Grey Fog that was unveiled in 2021 is yet another example of this. Even though the Air Max Dawn is a relatively new shoe, its ties to the Air Max 1 provide it with a retro look and feel. It has a series of simple but strong design lines that run across its grey synthetic suede upper, along with a low-profile Nike Air unit in its foam midsole. It also has a black and tan outsole with a unique seesaw pattern that is built to provide extra traction. But what our experts like most about this Air Max is that it's made from 20% recycled materials to turn it into an eco-friendly sneaker. It makes it a more modern shoe than people might think. The Nike Air Max Dawn Grey Fog was released on December 17, 2021, when it retailed for $100.
