Nike Air Max Scorpion “M. Frank Rudy” Racer Blue/Safety Orange DX4768-400 For Sale

Description

The Scorpion’s chenille upper is draped in a blue, similar to the shade found on the barometer hang tag that comes attached to the shoe. It’s also a possible nod to Rudy’s former role within NASA, adopting the space-blue that decorates the iconic insignia. The dotted branding on the tongue and heel are present in an orange, resembling the blinking lights that would constantly flicker on the surface of wall-to-wall mega computers from the ’70s. The insole features a schematic grid, an important part of Rudy’s daily life as an engineer. The stacked sole unit is covered in a blend of orange and red, drawing your attention to the progressive peak of Air technology as it stands today.
