Matt Varga “Newness,” especially under the tenure of Elliott Hill, has become a hot word within the walls of Nike, Inc. Fans and business commentators alike noted that the catalog had partially grown stale, initially buoyed by a retro-focused consumer base that shelled out time and time again for the Dunk, Air Force 1, and Air Jordan 1, but eventually had little to pivot to when the “heat” around those products subsided.
That’s why models like the Pegasus Premium, aimed at “restoring the feeling” regarding the unbelievable feel of unboxing new hotness out of Beaverton, have been so celebrated. Yet even if the top-line takeaways for Nike industry watchers have turned to novel developments, there’s still room for the Swoosh to celebrate its more well-established kicks. It’s why the Nike Air Max 90 is already looming for a full-blown revitalization, teasing “Low Poly” and “Square Toe” steps for the 40th anniversary of Nike Air.
Even before that celebration, the Tinker Hatfield design hasn’t been sparse in the slightest, its latest trick a “Shadow Brown” that leans on its storied atmosphere with luggage-like leathers and an overall nocturnal brown/black palette.
The Nike Air Max 90 “Shadow Brown” should be hitting Nike.com in short order, clocking in at the usual $160 retail price.
