The Nike Air Max 90 "Flax" is Available Now

Designed by Tinker Hatfield, Nike's iconic Air Max 90 is set to receive a seasonal update with the "Flax-for-Fall" treatment, perfect for the autumn months.

The Air Max 90 "Flax" pairs with a similarly styled Air Max Plus, featuring an all-tan color scheme highlighting the shoe's sleek lines and timeless design. The use of supple tan nubuck across the upper ensures a premium feel, while the durable canvas tongues add a touch of practicality and contrast in texture. Standardized rubber brand panels maintain the Air Max 90’s traditional aesthetic, ensuring that this version remains true to its roots.

One of the standout features of this release is the sail-tinted midsole, which breaks up the monotony of the tan and adds a subtle variation in color that complements the overall design. The stowed Air supports are also tinted tan, blending seamlessly with the sneaker’s theme, and the look is completed with a practical gum rubber tread underfoot, enhancing the shoe's style and functionality.

The Nike Air Max 90 "Flax" release is confirmed to arrive on Nike.com on September 30, 2024.
