Just when you thought weโd seen the last of the delayed Olympic drops, another appears. This time itโs a Nike Air Max 90 โGrey USAโ that has materialized in a very retro aesthetic.
The combo of navy, white and grey with hints of red is oh-so-era-specific (something my pops would wear, for sure) which looks right at home here on the 30-year-old trainer. Utilizing four different shades of grey, each layer shifts slightly darker as its laid. Light grey mesh uppers move to mid-grey leather toe/midfoot overlays, while the mudguard rocks the pairโs darkest shade. The lightest hit of grey appear at the uppermost eyelet, lateral branding panel, and Air cassettes โ the latter engulfed by a beaming white midsole. Laces and liners. also indulge in a bright white finish, while popping red mesh tongues tie the Americana theme in most obviously. Branding at the tongue and rear ham-up the USA aesthetic, while metallic gold insole branding links it back to classic Olympic colorways past. Completing the design is a set of Navy leather Swooshes, a tri-tone rubber outsole, and deep red Air supports, too.
A release date for this Air Max 90 โGrey USAโ is yet to be revealed, but you should expect to see a Stateside release as we head into Spring.
