AB, Aiden Barber is the designer of the Nike Air Max 270 from the Nike Doernbecher 2018 Collection.

Aiden Barber knows a thing or two about being brave – in 2015 he was diagnosed with a brain vascular malformation. After two years of observation, including numerous MRI scans, it was determined he would need surgery. Today, Aiden is continuing to recover and using his Air Max 270 design to honor his family and his personal motto, Always Believe. The camouflage kicks also feature an image of his brain, complete with small titanium plates now implanted in his skull. You’ll also find the initials AB on the shoes, which have a special significance. Not only are they Aiden’s initials, they’re also the initials of his beloved big sister Abigail, who is exactly one year older than him.
