A Stealthy Nike Air Max 90 “Dark Smoke Grey/Sanded Purple” Drops Holiday 2025

The Nike Air Max 90 has long been a staple in the brand’s lineup, known for its balance of sport and street appeal. For Holiday 2025, the classic silhouette arrives in a new “Dark Smoke Grey/Sanded Purple” colorway that tones things down while adding a subtle twist.

Dressed primarily in smooth black leather, the sneaker delivers a stealthy all-weather look. Black mesh underlays and tonal midsole units reinforce the monochrome presentation, while Dark Smoke Grey accents land across the outsole to break things up slightly. The Sanded Purple shade makes its appearance sparingly, applied to the Nike Air branding on the heel badge and tongue tab, providing just enough contrast to the otherwise muted build.

Performance-wise, the model keeps everything true to its roots, with visible Air cushioning in the heel, a padded collar, and durable rubber outsole traction that’s been reliable since 1990. The result is a timeless Air Max 90 dressed in understated shades, making it versatile enough for daily wear.

The Nike Air Max 90 “Dark Smoke Grey/Sanded Purple” is expected to release Holiday 2025 on Nike.com and at select retailers.
