Nike’s Air Mac Attack is having a moment in sneaker culture.
When it originally dropped as John McEnroe’s signature model it was special. It rebelled against every norm that came with tennis. Normally tennis shoes were all white, but the original Mac Attack was black and grey. It didn’t come in any other color.
As a result, though, the shoe never returned after its 1984 debut. It lasted for a while, but as decades passed it sort of just faded into the ether. Until now.
Now, in 2023, we’re finally getting a Mac Attack resurgence. It’s coming in more colors with more creativity. One of the new pairs is the yin and yang colorway that we just had on the latest episode of Special Delivery.
This colorway is simple, but it’s significant for the shoe moving forward. We dive into it on the latest episode of Special Delivery.
