Nike's Air Max 1 'Big Head Origins' Will Launch on SNKRS

subdivision has always focused on the digital space and was billed as Nike’s home for gaming; however, they broke through the screens last year when they entered the physical realm with the ‘Low Poly’. Debuted by , the design mixed the streamer’s contagious energy with the low-poly-inspired build and .SWOOSH co-sign to send the interwebs into a frenzy. Now it seems Nike are dropping another lo-fi-gaming AM1, with imagery emerging of a Donkey Kong inspired colourway.

Donkey Kong is arguably one of the most iconic low poly video games of all time, and Nike have included plenty of subtle easter eggs that point to the ape tribute. The first is the colourway, which has been inspired by his brown fur and signature red tie. Most of the detail is on the insole though, which hosts coin graphics reading ‘DS’ referencing .SWOOSH, but also eludes to the coins used in the game. Finally, signature DK banana graphics are placed towards the insole’s toe.

So far, the Donkey Kong inspired .SWOOSH x Nike Air Max 1 ‘Low Poly’ hasn’t been given a release date, but we’re expecting them to arrive in the back half of this year.
