Nike Air Max 720

Another day, another new colorway of the Air Max 720.

Nike's brand new sneaker the Air Max 720 has been turning heads and getting rave reviews thanks to its unique look and chunky air max unit that wraps all the way around the shoe. It's a genius design that builds on what the Air Max 270 started. With the Spring in full swing and the Summer on the horizon, the Beaverton brand has been showing off a ton of new colorways of the sneaker which will ultimately give consumers a lot more options to choose from when it comes picking out a color that suits them.

The latest model to surface is simply being dubbed "obsidian" thanks to its dark blue upper. Surrounding the obsidian upper is some university blue highlights along the side and on the midsole. In many ways, the colorway is reminiscent of the obsidian/UNC Blue colorway of the Air Jordan 1 that will be released in August.

According to Sneaker News, this model will be coming out on May 17th for $180 USD.
