Michael Le Not much is known about Nike’s “Evolution of Icons” pack, but after quite a few reveals, we can confidently say that each new entry will feature the same logo-heavy insole and multicolored tongue label. This upcoming Air Max 90, which joins the collection with the aforementioned details, serves as further proof, though it also brings along some overt nods to its own star-studded roster of past colorways.
Starting at the sole, one will quickly notice the homage to the iconic “Infrared” — especially considering that the scheme was brought back not too long ago. Up front, below an orange-tinted embroidered check, the tread hues a “Hyper Royal,” its usage an obvious nod to the release of the very same name. Elsewhere, at the suede and mesh construction of the upper, grey and white neutrals escort the referential bits of color: specifically, the “Laser Blue” of the Swoosh and the neon “Volt” at the heel tab and topmost eye stay.
Grab a detailed look at this tour of AM90 history here and expect to find at Nike.com and possibly a few select retailers very soon.
