Chien-Ming Wang, a Taiwanese pitcher who is currently playing for the New York Yankees, recently teamed up with the folks over at Nike to design a new colorway of the Air Max 1. This time around, the AM1 host a white premium leather upper with black accents seen on the mid-sole and inner tongue, while gold accents are visible via the stitching, heel, out-sole, and lace holes. A couple key features of this pair include the baseball-like stitching which goes around the whole sneaker as well as the inner tongue which yields Wang’s jersey number, 40. The “Chien-Ming Wang” Nike Air Max 1 Premium is expected to release in Taiwan on July 10, while U.S. retailers will be receiving their shipments later this year.
