Though often overlooked for more hyped up and limited drops, general releases can be the source of some awesome gems. And Nike's latest Air Max 1 is exactly that.

Nicknamed the "Olympic" because its colorway is similar to that of previous Olympic themed releases - think Air Force 1 High and Nike Air Max 180 -  this AM1 is arguably one of the best general releases to come out in quite awhile. With the Air Max 1 having such a rabid fan base, it wouldn't be much of a surprise to see these fly off shelves even with its broader release. Couple that with it being a perfect summer shoe with its super clean colorway, there's a real possibility that sneakerheads will quickly gobble these up. If you're gunning for a pair, KicksUSA has you covered right now with nearly a full-size run. Don't sleep.
