As the first Air Max of a brand new decade, the Air Max 90 reflected the rapid but seismic shifts in the landscape that occurred between the release of the first and second Air Max models. Although the appetite for ‘extreme’ aesthetics was still just around the next corner, by 1990 tastes in sportswear had embraced comprehensively bolder looks.

The Air Max 90 responded by increasing the volume contained in the Air units, and the size of the visible Air window to go along with it. A busier look, featuring TPU ribbing, and paneled overlays took a more aggressive stance than its predecessor, as did a plethora of vivid colorways.

As far as its place in history is concerned, the Air Max 90 is timeless. That doesn't mean, though, that this perennial favorite can't get dressed up for a special, seasonal occasion. A green and white colorway, featuring an embossed four leaf clover motif on the mudguard makes for the perfect design to step into spring with.
