Jovani Hernandez Despite debuting 31 years ago, the Nike Air Max 90 continues being one of the brand’s most popular propositions. For its latest ensemble, the sneaker has indulged in a predominant black and orange color combination complete with non-standard, sketch-like branding.
Mesh bases on the newly-surfaced pair proffer a greyscale makeup that complements the pitch-dark panels overlaid atop them. TPU detailing along the tongue and at the spine share in the black makeup, as do the surrounding synthetic leather panels, but mudguards deviate from a simple uniform look by donning a two-tone grid pattern. Seemingly a nod to the blueprint followed to make the iconic Air Max model, the protective component sits underneath “sketched” profile swooshes. The remainder of the sneaker follows a relatively standard design, although branding throughout and the visible Air unit opt for citrus flair.
No official Nike.com release date has been confirmed by the brand, but that’s likely to change as 2022 inches closer. In the meantime, enjoy images of the Air Max 90 ahead.
