Now it’s another NES-inspired shoe, this time the Air Max Terra. It’s got a similar theme to the Classics – the subtle d-pad around the sole, the colour scheme – but it’s not quite as refined. Indeed, it looks more like a Mega Drive 2 tribute than a NES one. Nike Air Max Terra Ninety Nintendo NES Collaboration [Crave Online, thanks Sid!] More »
