Perfect fit, attractive colours and a good dose of air under the heel, that's what Adidas Gazelle Dámské makes the Air 180 so special. This model is a solo fighter in the sneaker world, the other silhouettes are difficult to compare with the 180. This shoe runs with you, not you with the shoe.

When the Air 180 hit the market for the Nike Internationalist Womens first time in 1992, the shoe initially walked past me and I started my never-ending trip to the Air Max world with its successor, the Air Max 93. One would think that new is always better but no, the 93 wasn't able to hold a candle to the 180, he had something optically over the 93, the visible air system which was seen under the entire midsole.

But really, what was this system in comparison to the incredible big bubble of the OG 180 that was more reminiscent of hovercraft than running? I remember exactly how I went out on the weekend with a friend. I was showing off with my new 93s on feet and my friend with his Air Max 180 Olympic. I couldn't take my eyes off his Olympics and the oversized air pads. How was he feeling wearing these plump pillows under his feet? Not hard to guess what came next. After the Weekend I went directly Nike Air Max 95 Womens to Sport Eule, then the best shop for athletic shoes in Leipzig, and asked for a pair of these babies. Unfortunately the Olympic was no longer there, and the seller fumbled another colorway out of the box - the Ultramarine! Boom!

The sight of these sneaks made me briefly consider whether there were traces of LSD in my blood, or if my eyes were just playing a prank on me. But neither of the two were the case. After I slipped into these beauties and stood in front of the mirror, I knew that this was indeed reality, and from that moment on no one could ever separate us. No, there was no need to pack my first pair of Air 180s back into the box. I rocked them and made sure that everyone could see me and my new love together. And although we were sometimes separated over the years and the details have changed a little, true Nike Roshe Run Dámské love lasts forever.

So today I wear my Air 180 HOA from 2005 on my feet. I can remember these three letters like yesterday, when they first appeared: HOA - The History Of Air. My History of Air..

Unveiled early this year, the Nike Air Max Verona is but one more notch in a long-running series of women’s exclusive silhouettes. Inspired by the 1992 model of the same name, the pair continues strong a newfound legacy paved by the previously released Air Max Thea and Dia. Fittingly playing off the AM90, the Verona exaggerates its look dramatically with a tooling the size of the 270 and new run of Spring colorways that draw from many a past icon. White and blue tones come together to celebrate its OG predecessor, Crimson and Magenta hark to the Air Max 180, and Pink and Blues pay homage to the Air Pegasus. And even aside from color, Nike Air Huarache Damen the upper constructions make full use of suede, rubber, and classic mesh to further reference.
