Returning after 12 years, the Atmos Nike Air Max Animal Pack releases this month. This version comes with updates on the original. It’s the sequel that people were waiting for, following the very successful 2006 drop. The original pairs of the first pack are making quite a fortune on the reselling market, which is bringing the hype of the second pack to a whole new level. Fans are now calling the new drop, Animal Pack 2.0, and the Air Max 1 and 95 are set to drop before Air Max day.

Atmos Nike Air Max
Atmos is a Tokyo-based streetwear/sneaker boutique founded in 2000 by Hidefumi Hommyo. Nike and Atmos have collaborated on Air Max shoes before. The most sought-after shoe they collaborated on is the Air Max 1 “Elephant” which released in 2007. It dropped for the second time since in 2017 as part of the Jordan Max Pack on Air Max Day. Another Atmos x Nike shoe made a comeback in 2016, the Safari colorway.
Design, Rarity & Value of the Animal Pack 2.0
The Air Max shoes that result from the Atmos x Nike collabs are highly limited and come with a hefty resale value. Till today, the resale value of the original Air Max Animal Pack since 2006 is pretty high on StockX. Both Air Max 1 and Air Max 95 are selling for hundreds of dollars over their retail cost. So if you hold on long enough for any of the new pack’s pairs, you might join the rich resellers club.
The Animal Pack 2.0 shoes are eye-catching, to say the least. Crazy faux fur wraps around them from heel to toe. The fur print has various wild animal patterns like tiger, cheetah, and zebra. This clean version is an upgrade from their last Animal Pack.

Good luck copping!
Copping them yourselves and paying retail is definitely the way to go in order to avoid those high resale prices. What if you don’t want them for your own collection? You can flip them for a couple worthy Benjamin Franklins to people who’ll actually benefit from them in their wardrobe.
The fight is getting more heated as we progress through 2018. The biggest rivals in the market, Adidas and Nike are not taking it easy. So keep your eyes open, your cash ready, and your Bots running because you never know what could be released next.
