Nike has always been known for being generous with the number of retros they drop. They are constantly feeding into our nostalgic ways and no one really seems to be complaining because the releases always tend to do well. While it may not be the most popular Air Max model, the AirMax2 Light is still a pretty important shoe in the Nike library and this year, the Beaverton brand is making an effort to bring it back, even if only in a limited capacity. 

One of the colorways that will be coming to the sneaker that was originally released in 1994, is this gorgeous "Habanero Red" version which was actually one of the OG models at the time of its release. The shoe features a mixture of suede and leather on the upper. The main color of the shoe is white, while a flashy red hue makes its way throughout the sneaker, primarily on the upper. As for the midsole, that comes in white as well, with a black Nike swoosh rounding out the shoe.
