The first lifestyle Air unit produced by Nike, the Air Max 270 is the first runner of its kind to be fashioned with the same rigour as a sports performance trainer but for the needs of everyday wear. The name 270 came from an internal Nike moniker for the Air Max 93, which referred to the 270 degrees of visibility for the silhouette’s Air unit, and standing at 32mm, the 270’s heel bag is the tallest ever made.
