Patriotic Heat Lands on the Nike Air Max 90 'USA'
Easter’s wrapped. The egg hunts are done and dusted, the chocolate’s been cleared out and those once-a-year pastels are heading back into storage. With spring easing into its later chapters, the soft tones that defined the season are starting to make way for something louder, bolder and built for the months ahead. Leading the shift is , who are kicking things off early with a patriotic take on a classic.
Expected to arrive just in time for July 4, the 'USA' continues the tradition of celebrating America’s colours in style, with shades of red, white and blue donning the 35-year-old design. Dark navy mudguards are paired with vibrant red accents scattered throughout, while white mesh and grey suede keep the balance. If you’re comparing the on-deck release to last year’s version, the biggest change comes at the Swoosh, which now takes on a more muted, steely tone with neutral suede materials.
This isn't the first time the Swoosh have given the Tinker Hatfield model the national colour treatment. Across its multi-decade history, the brand has returned to patriotic palettes time and again – proof that the all-American formula still delivers.
Even if it’s not the most groundbreaking spin, the overall look still hits. The colourblocking does what it needs to: bold where it counts, clean everywhere else. It's another reminder that evolution occasionally beats reinvention, especially when the foundation is as strong as this one.
