Dropping over the weekend was a familiar vintage runner from Nike Sportswear.
The Air Tailwind was originally produced in 1978 for the Honolulu Marathon and introduced the world to Nike Air cushioning. Â With a lightweight mesh and suede upper coupled with the new cushioning technology and the patented waffle outsole, the original Air Tailwind proved to be the perfect shoe for long distance running at that time.
Featuring the OG metallic silver/blue spark-matte silver colorway and a distressed sole, the Air Tailwind Vintage QS is available now in limited quantities via NSW retailers like 21 Mercer.
