Nike Tailwind 79 Black White — The Origin of All Air Technology

The story of the Tailwind 79 begins with Marion Franklin Rudy, an aerospace engineer who had worked for NASA and, after being rejected by 23 footwear manufacturers, managed to get Phil Knight to personally test his idea of cushioning with air chambers. Convinced after trying the prototype, Knight decided to invest in a technology that had not yet been validated. After a year of testing, the model was released in limited quantities at the 1978 Honolulu Marathon, selling out quickly, and reached the global market in 1979, the year that gives the silhouette its name. This Black White colorway presents the Tailwind in its most iconic and timeless combination.

Tailwind 79 — The First Nike Air Shoe in History

It is often mistakenly believed that the Air Max 1 pioneered Air technology, but that honor actually belongs to the Tailwind: it was the first shoe to incorporate Nike Air, although it was hidden in the midsole, with no visible window. In 1979, Rudy successfully patented this air-cushioning technology. In this Black White colorway, black covers much of the upper and overlays, while white appears on the midsole and contrast details, highlighting the classic running profile of the late 1970s.

Materials and Technology

  • Upper: Combined black and white panels with a retro-running finish faithful to the original 1979 design.
  • Interior: Padded lining and a foam insole for soft comfort with every step.
  • Outsole: Hidden Nike Air technology in the midsole, the first in the brand’s history, laying the foundations for all subsequent Air Max models.
