Andrew Rizzo One could argue that no footwear vertical has been as negatively impacted by the rise of Y2K tech runners as Nike’s stable of ’90s Air Max icons. Collectors and cult followers are still buying them, sure, but the casual consumer is no longer grabbing all-white Air Max 90s or Air Max Pluses as everyday beaters. Instead, they’re turning to the Vomero 5 and comparable models from brands like ASICS and New Balance for that same role.
Still, the Air Max icons we know and love remain just that: iconic. Here we have a new Air Max 90 style set to release in Spring 2026, featuring a low-key monochrome palette of “Smoke Grey/Black/Dark Smoke Grey/Photon Dust” across a mix of mesh, suede, and leather. Just an easy, versatile option for daily wear, especially through the cooler months.
If interested, look for these on Nike.com right now for $135 USD. See official images below and head to our Sneaker Release Dates page to browse more upcoming Air Max drops.
Speaking of which, read up on the Nike One Piece collection earmarked for next fall.
