When Nike’s classic Air Max 90 arrived to market in 1990, it kicked off a decade full of wild colors and legendary designs in the world of Air Max, paving the way for silhouettes like the Air Max 95 and Air Max 97. Inspiration from all things ’90s is still readily apparent in footwear and fashion today — with classic color palettes and retro styles still as popular as ever — and one of the most quintessential ’90s color combos is unquestionably “Grape,” a mix of purple and teal accents. Now two ’90s icons are coming together, as the Air Max 90 has received a classic “Grape” makeover. Using white mesh and light bone suede as the base, this new 90 boasts colorful accents via a rich purple mudguard and purple/teal accents on the throat, heel, and tongue. A black Swoosh adds dark contrast, and the look is completed with a white midsole, teal Air Max unit, and black outsole. Like the colorful retro look? These “new classic” Air Max 90s will drop this upcoming February on Nike.com and at select Swoosh Brand stockists.
