It couldn’t be, could it? The latest first glimpse of a signature Nike Air Max 98 have surfaced! With specific callouts to the young French megastar, with a “KM” logo that replaces the traditional Air Max logo.
1998 – the year of Kylian Mbappe’s birth. Whilst this makes us feel old, and question what we’ve all done with our lives, we’re thankful that it’s brought about a signature sneaker. It’s not new for the swoosh gods to gift the French superstar with his very own limited edition Air Max, but their latest birthday gift has really raised the gift game in time for his 21st birthday.
Elements of the sneakers suggest a collection is on its way with the design featuring a number of callouts – the KM logo being the first major hint.
The details on this release such as the circled 93 (93 is the administrative number of Seine-Saint-Denis in France, Mbappe’s home city of Bondy), the French tricolour, the Mercurial M and trademark Air cushion in the midsole. Delicious.
