While not celebrating a milestone anniversary of its own, the Nike Air Max 90 continues to help popularize the brand’s revolutionary Air Max technology, which debuted 35 years ago. Recently, the silhouette appeared in a kid’s offering featuring a greyscale color palette and multiple profile swooshes.
Akin to previously seen pairs for adults, the upcoming sneakers boast a “colorless” mesh base and accompanying synthetic leather overlays across the upper. Mudguards designed by Tinker Hatfield introduce stark grey contrast into the mix, as do the TPU components along the tongue and midsole. Branding at the spine and top of the tongue opt for a “Black” tone, while profile swooshes deviate from their muted surroundings in favor of a mix of vibrant green and red. The logo on the medial side falls in line with standard design language, but its appearance on the lateral sidewall indulges in an experimental style given its stacked layout.
Enjoy official images of the pair ahead, and anticipate a Nike.com launch in the coming weeks.
