Fly Through Life With Goku Air Max 1

Dragon Ball Z and the Nike swoosh. What could be better companions?

With a pair of Goku Air Max 1 sneakers, you’ll breeze through life. And you can actually get a pair for real.

It all started with a creative thought by artist Matthew Walsh. His Instagram is rife with such ideas, and the Goku Air Max 1 sneakers is one of those. He shared the concept on his account in May:

GOKU AM1

Unsurprisingly, it was met with wild excitement. Everyone wanted the sneakers to become a reality, though many thought it unlikely.

But…the idea was (is) just so awesome that someone picked it up.
