Stealth mode activated : the Air Max 1 “Black Cat” emerges in premium suede with an all-black palette, blending the shadow aesthetic with Tinker Hatfield’s timeless runner silhouette. It’s a dark, luxe take on an icon.

Design & Materials

The Air Max 1 Premium “Black Cat” is cloaked in deep black premium suede from heel to toe, including tonal stitching, hardware, and branding for a fully integrated look. The upper’s layered, curved panels maintain the classic AM1 profile, while a clear Air window teased in recent images adds subtle contrast to the stealth design. This “PRM” designation hints at upgraded materials and finish compared to standard editions.

Comfort & Performance

Underneath the sleek exterior lies the expected Air Max 1 performance: cushioning via the encapsulated midsole + visible Air unit for impact absorption, paired with a durable rubber waffle outsole to offer grip and daily wear resilience. The premium suede build gives a comfortable, broken-in feel from the first wear.

Release Info
