Nike to Issue a Duo of Ballistic Mesh-Made Air Max 90s

The Nike Air Max 90 is what most sneaker aficionados would agree to be the second flagship in the Air Max lineage, only trumped by the ’87 OG, both of which are the brainchildren of sneaker design God, Tinker Hatfield. Fast-forward three decades, and the silhouette has not missed a beat. The pair, now well into its dirty thirties, continues it’s 30th birthday bash in style with two more colorways to quench our thirst.

These everyman-options will be sure to please both the niche culture and the masses — a duo that would fit into anyone’s daily rotation with ease. Both pairs feature the same build, constructed in an amalgamation of ballistic mesh, leather and nubuck paneling to subtly impose a heavy-duty feel. The upper on the first pair is all black with grey branding, the opposing pair is somewhat inverted in grey and black, although the grey arrives much darker than the former. Both pairs possess white midsoles and two-tone rubber outsoles, finishing the looks are red/orange Air inserts and profile branding respectively.

Expect the two pairs to hit select Swoosh partners and Nike.com very soon for $170 apiece — but with a release date still up in the air, you’ll want to make sure that you’re following HOUSE OF HEAT on Twitter for further updates.
