Nike’s latest Air Max 90 isn’t for the fashionably reserved. Joining a “Racing” pack among standout general releases, this upcoming colorway signals summer with a refershing, attention-grabbing gradient.

Official images reveal vibrant color atop the two mesh placements. Sprite-esque “Lemon Venom” and “Laser Orange” appear over the toe box, while the collar dresses in “Hyper Crimson.” Save for additional “Hyper Crimson” accents on the tongue tag, Air bubble, and heel “Nike Air” text, the rest of the design opts for “Blackened Blue” across leather, suede, and TPU.

The Nike Air Max 90 “Gradient” doesn’t have a solid release date, but all indications suggest a Summer/Fall 2025 arrival. See official images below and preview other upcoming Air Max on our Sneaker Release Dates page.
