Welcome back to The Vault\u00b0, our weekly look at the artifacts, moments, and untold stories that shaped the culture.<\/p>\n
Marshall Bruce Mathers III\u2014best known across the globe as “Eminem”\u2014is synonymous with some of the rarest Air Jordan sneakers of all-time. The award-winning, multi-platinum-selling artist surely has more projects with “His Airness” under wraps, but, savvy footwear fans might be wondering when “Slim Shady” will release another Nike Air Max<\/a> project.<\/p>\n Before Eminem worked on his “Encore” Air Jordan 4<\/a>, which almost went down as the first-ever Air Jordan collaboration, the Detroit-representative lent his creative vision to the more obscure Air Max Burst. Part of an “Artist Series” initiative by Nike, the pair kicked off what’s been a fruitful partnership between Mathers and the Swoosh conglomerate\u2014one that’s produced at least 15 proper collaborative styles (more if you include samples and one-offs).<\/p>\n In celebration of the “Motor City”‘s unofficial “313 Day” (March 13) and on-going coverage of visible Air cushioning for Nike’s Air Max Month, we’ve put together a brief chronicle of Eminem’s Air Max collabs thus far. Many pairs featured were extremely limited upon their “release,” with most being exclusive to Friends & Family of the artist, promotional items, or lots for charity auctions.<\/p>\n In any case, you can check out Nike.com<\/a>, as well as after-market platforms KICKS CREW<\/a> and StockX<\/a>, to pick up Air Max footwear if Em’s design history inspires you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Welcome back to The Vault\u00b0, our weekly look at the artifacts, moments, and untold stories that shaped the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":339071,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[146,85,46,409],"class_list":["post-339070","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-music","tag-entertainment","tag-il","tag-israel","tag-music"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/339070","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=339070"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/339070\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/339071"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=339070"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=339070"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=339070"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
