The holidays are just around the corner and this is usually an indication that the weather is going drastically shift to colder, wetter climate conditions. And to comfortably muscle through the days where precipitation is on the heavier side, protective footwear is key and that’s why Nike is beefing up its GORE-TEX catalog this season. One silhouette that has been included in this initiative is the Air Max 90 GORE-TEX, and shortly after a gray and blue iteration was uncovered, a brand new “Velvet Brown” makeup has now popped up on our radar.

The upper half comes packaged with premium smooth leather, ripstop and nubuck materials. Its titular shade guides its overall presentation as it drops off on the toe boxes, overlays that start at the front and extend onto the quarter panels, laces and the collars. A “Diffused Taupe” covers the tongues and Swooshes while the mudguards are stylized with an earthy brown exterior. Bright blue accents are sprinkled to the liners and eye stays for subtle-yet-effective pops, and GORE-TEX logos are positioned on the tongues and side windows to indicate its weatherproof capabilities.

Detailed imagery can be found in the gallery above and you can expect Nike to drop these during the Fall/Winter season.

For other news, a multicolored Nike LeBron 20 iteration has emerged.
