One of the Nike Air Max 90‘s most notable colorways is making a return with some color alterations. The model’s original “Infrared” theme will soon see a contrasting black base and grey mudguard. Infrared accents see their way onto to the Swoosh and Air Max housing in the heel. The model’s signature elements return with an Air Max stamp on its lateral side with additional branding on the tongue and heel.

This Nike Air Max 90 retails for $130 USD and is expected to launch soon at select Nike Sportswear retailers and Nike.com. Stay tuned for more information and let us know how it compares to the original “Infrared” color scheme. In case you missed it, you can browse shots of the Air Max 180 in “Baroque Brown.”
