Nike's Air Max sneakers, without doubt, lay claim to some of the most iconic silhouettes in the game. From the AM1 to the 720 and beyond, the sneaker franchise is the only one to be celebrated with its own day, which is now in its fifth year. And though collaborations from the likes of Skepta and COMME des GARÇONS are always hyped, there are plenty of under-the-radar Air Max silhouettes and colorways that'll improve your rotation.

Below we've compiled a selection of our choice Nike Air Max sneakers to shop now, focusing on understated general releases. Options span low-key color palettes right up to standout gradient colorways.

Highlights in our selection include the fall-ready colorways of the Air Max 97 and Air Max Tailwind 4, here available in black and grey versions. And while Fall/Winter often means monochrome, we've also thrown in some more color-heavy options, including the gradient blue Air Vapormax Plus and orange Air Max Plus.

Scroll on to view all the best Nike Air Max sneakers to shop now.
