The Nike Air Max 720 Desert draws inspiration from nature, specifically arid areas. Featuring a Club Gold, Black, and Wheat colorway that mirrors the barren landscape, the molded neoprene upper presents a Desert Ore and Club Gold veneer. Black detailing accentuates the TPU overlays around the midfoot, toe, and heel, while a club gold TPU overlay around the midsole reinforces the upper. The design is complemented by a full-length 720 Max Air Unit tinted gold under its translucent shell and a rubber outsole designed for traction. Performance-oriented details like the black heel pull tab and a Nike patch on the tongue, along with a black Swoosh around the midfoot, finalize the look. The rustic colors evoke a retro feel, connected to modern sneaker trends. Released on February 28, 2019, the Nike Air Max 720 Desert retailed for $180 and features an outsized Air sole unit that delivers cushioned comfort during each step.
