We’re not exactly how much involvement Parra had in the design of these Nike x Parra Air Maxim 1s, but we do know that they’re dope nonetheless. Although Parra’s familiar characters are left off the sneaker, you’ll noticed the Dutch artist’s go-to color scheme on the speckled soles. The sneakers have hit Nike accounts like Proper, Sneaker Bistro, and of course the Nike Sportswear store on Mercer street.
