Perhaps kick-started by Stussy’s recent releases, Nike has found themselves in the mids of a Hempeloution. With a return of the Nike Air Max 1 Hemp “Crepe”and an accompanying Air Max 97 — amongst others — the Swoosh has gone hard of the sustainable textiles in 2022. Now it’s appeared on an aptly titled Nike Air Max 90 “Hemp” release, as it serves as the new colorway’s sturdy anchor point.
With the titular textile sitting below, Nike looks to layer on complimentary earthy tones in a variety of textures, from tumbled chocolate leathers to mossy green suedes. Sky blue Swooshes also sport a suede finish, with olive green eyestays and brand panels joined by anthracite accents at the heel and Air cassette. All of this rests atop a classic white and gum sole unit, with blues returning once more to color the Air supports and brand marks fluttered throughout.
A release date for this all-new Nike Air Max 90 “Hemp” is yet to be revealed, but you should expect to see pairs hit select stores and Nike.com in the coming weeks. Until more news arrives, you can enjoy a first look at the pair here below, and be sure to keep your eyes locked on our official Twitter account for further updates.
