Its riot-inducing original was already among the most famous sneakers of all time, but the ‘Pigeon’ colourway by Jeff Staple has gotten alot of respect in oh-nine. He created a Converse Sea Star Hi and a New Balance 575 with the same colourway, which inspired LaMJC to craft a similar Air Force 1 Bespoke and a custom Nike Air Max 90. Somewhere in the middle is this AM90 created on Nike iD. The creator used infrared in place of the salmon hits for a look that reminds us how similar the new Supra Skytop II ‘Gradient’ really is. Which Staple-inspired Air Max 90 would you pick?

Really? Ya’ll think Nike has infared available as a color option on Nike iD? They haven’t had that available since 2005. They’re actually “hot red”. I know, I know, it’s really close but ya’ll should start using the pantone system until you can figure out what’s really what.

I would def choose the second pair. I’ve been a fan of them since I first seen em. And the first pair isn’t that special. It’s not even the right color way. When NikeID changed their materials and colors for the Air Max 90, like a month ago, I made this same exact shoe. I’m not tryin to hate on it, but the second pair would for sure be a better “Pigeon” Air Max 90….

It’s “Hot Red” …No where near “Infared”
The pigeons never had “Hot Red” or “Infared”
It looks pretty simple and clean though. Kudos.

ballistic mesh and the consistent softness of the second scheme is better in my opinion. I like them both.
