"Blue Lightning" Strikes Nike's Air Max 90

Tinker Hatfield's iconic Nike Air Max 90 design is in the midst of its 35th anniversary. To celebrate the occasion, the Swoosh has outfitted the silhouette in a number of different hues inspired by its original look.

Ahead of July, the sneaker emerged in a "Platinum Tint/Blue Lightning/Wolf Grey/Iron Grey" color scheme. Color-blocking harkens back to the Air Max model's inaugural ensemble from 1990. Mudguards and other overlays across the upper opt for different dark shades, setting the stage for a summer-friendly, contrasting tone to animate everything from the TPU eyelets to the Air Max branding on the profiles. Logos on the tongue and the cassette underfoot also enjoy rich blue flair, further expanding the AM90's roster of OG-reminiscent finishes.

The "Blue Lightning"-accented Air Max 90 is available now on Nike.com.
