The Nike Air Max 2021 is all about sustainability ♻️

Nike comes this year with the Nike Air Max 2021. This Air Max consists of many sustainable materials through the Move To Zero project of the American sports brand.

Nike's Move To Zero project is all about sustainability. The fashion industry is one of the most polluting industries in the world. Nike wants to help reduce this by striving for a future without plastic waste and less CO2 emissions.

To achieve these sustainability goals, they use many recycled materials and less plastic. With their Move To Zero project, they are trying to save the earth in time.

The sole is a striking element. It consists of two parts. The rear part contains the fully visible Air unit in an orange colour with an orange rubber cage around it. The part under the forefoot is made of foam and in white. Above the midsole is a rubber border that changes colour from orange to purple. The outsole is black.
