As evidenced by this season’s Tech Fleece footwear, black and grey is a combo that always works. The latest illustration of that fact comes in the form of this Black/Cool Grey-Anthracite-University Red rendition of the Air Max 90. Sporting a seasonally appropriate base of marled grey mesh, the design feature black leather overlays throughout as a dash of red takes care of the tongue branding badge. Finally, additional black and grey accents hit everything from the air-cushioned midsole and lining to the leather Swoosh branding, laces and molded eyestay.
Coming alongside the recently introduced Air Max Lunar90 is the Nike Air Max 90 Ice. This is set to drop in a ice white/cool grey-black-infrared colorway that features a Hyperfuse upper dominated white, grey and black geometric print. Also, there is a semi-translucent black and infrared overlays and an icy midsole with contrasting inner Phylon cushioning that give the shoe a futuristic look.
