That’s when Nike first opened up the midsole to show the world what had been absorbing and dispersing its every footstep since the 1970s. The public loved it, and Nike obliged our love of the shoe by issuing fresh Air with a new design every year.
An Anniversary of Air
The Nike Air Max 90 released in 1990 and was known as the Air Max III until 2000. That’s when Nike, as with so many popular Air Jordan basketball shoes, began re-issuing that Air Max. The Swoosh renamed it the Air Max 90 in honour of its debut year. The layered upper and built-up midsole with visible Air captivated fans of the franchise.
Hits of colour punctuated the upper, the foxing, and the midsole, the chosen colour forming a frame around the Vis-Air window.
Every Wear, Every Air
Foot Locker carries a diverse selection of the Air Max 90, ranging from the fun and bright to the all-black that are even popular among those who can wear such a comfortable choice on the job.
The 90’s chunky midsole is straight fire in lifestyle-oriented shoes throughout sneaker culture. And it’s what really sets the Air Max 90 apart from the other most popular Air Max “retro” releases, including the Air Max 93, 95, and 97.
The Air Max 90 is available in sizes for men, women, boys, and girls. And a wide array of Nike Air apparel makes it easy to hook up your look.
Whether it’s T-shirts for an easy base layer, fleece to warm you up, workout wear for grown-ups, or even top/bottom sets for kids, Nike Air – and the Air Max 90 – can be the main character in your style story.
