The Nike Air Max 90 is on That UNC Drip
It’s very easy to make a bad colourway. However, it’s also very easy to create an excellent one — have done the latter in this case, with a UNC-esque edition.
Utilising the classic leather and mesh combination found on all good AM90s, the Swoosh keeps it simple with a white, navy and light blue combination. The light blue appears on the top eyelets, mudguard and outsole tip, injecting a welcome blast of colour through the navy.
The navy highlight surrounding the heel Air unit tones it down and gives just the right amount of contrast on the midsole.
It looks like Nike is gearing up for the Air Max 90’s 30th anniversary next year…stay tuned!
