Nike’s impending “Flora Pack” has been experimenting heavily with canvas and woven thread, with decorative detail the key theme. Blazers and Air Force 1s featuring Pomegranate and Indigo plants have all be decorated with beautiful stitchwork and cinder soles. Now it’s time for the brand’s premier trainer line to join the collection, with this Nike Air Max 90 “Cork” the latest addition.

As the title suggests, the presence of cork at the midfoot Swoosh is expected, but it’s the embroidered detail at the tongue which, for me at least, garners the most attention. It channels the cork-bearing oak plant in a similar notation to the previous editions. With this, the Swooshes and the flecked cinder sole units, it’s quite easy to overlook the pair’s beautifully constructed cream canvas upper that’s complemented by contrast stitching, white midsoles, and navy blue liners.
