Last May, sneaker enthusiasts across the world voted for six of their favorite shoe designs out of 18 international finalists in the annual "Nike: On Air" contest.
The "Nike: On Air" sneaker design program was a call to arms for six major cities around the world to imagine an Air Max inspired by its community’s unique cultural fingerprint, as designed by the locals who know it best.
The six winning sneaker designs, listed below, will now be headed to retailers in April.
