The Orange Frost iteration of the Nike Air Max 1 Puerto Rico pays homage to the Puerto Rican frozen treats (helados) known as “piraguas” that come in flavors such as coconut, passionfruit and pineapple.
The sneaker is made with a combination of leather and suede materials in shades of “Orange Frost,” “Citron Pulse,” and “Coconut Milk.”
And much like its cool-toned counterpart, the “Orange Frost” features an anthropomorphized graphic of said sweet, with popular flavors written on the shoe’s packaging.
Notable design elements include Jewel Swooshes, lace dubraes with “Puerto Rico” branding, special piragua-inspired tongue labels, and “Puerto Rico” embroidery on the right heel tab. Special packaging that include a custom towel to further celebrate Puerto Rico Day will also be included in the release.

Air Max Vs AF: 3 key differences in the Nike sneakers
1) Design
The most noticeable difference between Air Max and Air Force is the design of the shoes. Both sneakers are known for their unique and eye-catching designs. However, Air Max shoes feature a visible air unit in the sole, which gives them a distinct, futuristic look.
Air Force , on the other hand, have a more classic design with a smooth, solid sole.
2) Comfort
Both Air Max and Air Force are designed with comfort in mind, but they use different technologies to achieve this. Air Max shoes have a more cushioned sole with a larger air unit, which provides a bouncier and more responsive feel. Air Force shoes have a more traditional sole with less cushioning, which provides a firmer and more stable feel.
3) Functionality
While both Air Max and Air Force are popular for casual wear, they have different intended purposes. Air Max shoes are designed more for running and athletic activities, while Air Force shoes are designed more for basketball and other court sports.
Air Max are typically lighter and more flexible, while Air Force are more durable and supportive.
