Nike X SEVENSTORE | Air Max Day Event

‘Give Fresh Air,’ is Nike’s celebration of Air Max Day 2022. Centred around social change and fuelled by community, this initiative aims to unite people and creativity.

In honour of Air Max Day, SEVENSTORE has enlisted a team of subjects – DJs, designers, theatre producers, artists, writers, and activists – as integral cogs in the machine of a wider conversation. From dissecting the scope of gender identity and sustainability, to uplifting the work of artists of colour and promoting wellness classes, Girl Gang Manchester, Aurelia Magazine, Sumuyya Khader, Bhavna Malkani and Jacqui McAssey embody all that the Air Max series is - brimming with unabashed personality, driven by implementing change and championing people.

This project is dedicated to the women who designed the sneaker, to the subjects involved, and the communities of supporters, artists, and creatives they wish to inspire.
