The Nike Air Max 90 continues to dominate the sneaker landscape, with each season bringing forth an array of new colorways to keep its legacy vibrant and accessible. In a twist on the usual approach, the latest Air Max 90 rendition, dubbed “University Gold/Dusty Cactus,” opts for a unique color palette traditionally reserved for general releases, showcasing it instead in a men’s exclusive.
Navy and white command the primary canvas of the shoe, setting a neutral stage for the more vivid hues to shine. The addition of “Dusty Cactus” teal and a striking red, however, injects life into this design, alternating on the Swooshes to create an appealing asymmetry. Once a hallmark of niche collaborations, this design choice has increasingly found its way into Nike's regular offerings, mirroring the playful contrast seen in the “Photo Blue/Laser Orange” Blazer Low ’77.
The “University Gold/Dusty Cactus” further embraces its boldness with a tri-color sole that segments red at the fore, navy mid-way, and yellow at the heel, seamlessly blending up into the midsole and highlighting the air bubble with a backdrop of navy. The heel tab also features a harmonious blend of red and yellow, encapsulating the shoe's vibrant essence.
Enjoy an official look at the release below, and expect to see these released on Nike.com on April 17, 2024, for a retail price of $130.
