Nike‘s newest Air Max 90 is a vibrant patchwork of contrasting textures and colors. From suede to corduroy to full-grain leather, the shoe’s reconstructed design offers a fresh look to the classic silhouette.

Starting at the top of the shoe is a white leather tongue tag set over light blue satin. A monochromatic houndstooth pattern appears at the ankle collars, complemented by a light blue corduroy heel patch. Set over white leather sidewalls is a yellow Swoosh made in suede. Furthermore, pink corduroy is placed along the mudguards, while a bright red nylon toebox rounds off the uppers. All of these details rest over a two-toned midsole to complete the shoe’s bold look.

No official release dates have been announced, but this patchwork iteration of Nike’s Air Max 90 is expected to land soon on Nike’s website — a price has yet to be confirmed.

In case you missed it, here’s a look at the new Nike Air Max VG-R.
