Sneakerhead traditionalists frequently bemoan the rise of hybridization/modular design. They probably don’t realize that most sneakers are similar because of the progression of development, but then again, some combos just weren’t meant to be. Take for example, the Nike Vandals and Air Max 90s. Seperately, each has a rabid following and sells a ton to ‘regular’ shoppers. Tell a sneakerhead they’re being mashed together, and there’s sure to be tears and gnashing of teeth.
Well, lighten up, guys. The Nike V-Light is a lesson for you to avoid making yourself sad with your keen observation skills. Yes, this shoe resembles both the Vandal and AM90 in some ways. They also have a Swoosh on the side just like the Air Jordan 1. But seriously, take a second look at the V-Light and notice how it captures a series of iconic Nike design elements for an interesting new kid’s shoe, just like the above-linked Nike Vunk. A mostly black pair and one in black/grey/white with orange hits are both available from NikeStore.

It’s not an AM90, it’s the outsole of an Air Max Light.
The reason why they call them V-Lights…
