Up against the Air Max 90 Flywire, the Air Max 90 Current has perhaps been the early winner in fan support for the Air Max 90 Contemporary segment. Although not as technologically advanced as its lightweight counterpart, the Air Max 90 Current wins out mainly for his dedication to the original Air Max 90 on an aesthetics level, even staying true with an OG colorway rendition. The Air Max 90 Current features an ultra breathable toebox and upper due to the prominent use of mesh with the addition of a Nike Free sole for better running development. Look for these to hit select Nike dealers in coming weeks.

At the time of its release, the Air Max 90 was at the pinnacle of technological developments in the realm of sports. Nevertheless, the last 18 years has yielded more than its fair share of innovation from Nike resulting in the creation of the Air Max 90 Current. The shoe features an updated platform including revamped upper and sole to create a more performance orientated product with a strong sense vintage aesthetics which many have come to love.
