I have my eyes on the Michigan pair, only because I’m a Pacers fan. Nice to see these make a comeback. I remember for the longest I wanted a pair, now they’re finally here.

The beauty of the Nike Air Max 90 is that the shoe manages to look good in many different ways. The silhouette is very versatile, which in return makes it an ideal canvas to do whatever you want on it. Tonal uppers, subtle uppers, bright and bold motifs, prints and textures, everything looks good on the shoe (well, almost everything). This time around the Air Max 90 takes the subtle route as a White / Black / Grey colorway makes its way to the model.

The shoe starts off with a leather and mesh upper. The base of the shoe comes in White, while hits of Black and Grey are placed on the mudguard, eyelets, heel tab, Nike Swoosh, branding and midsole surrounding the Air Max bubble. Nothing out of the ordinary, but that’s perfectly okay when it comes to the Nike Air Max 90. Available internationally, we will let you know if these end up dropping stateside.

It’s solid. There’s so man iterations of the model, that sometimes we tend to overlook some of them. Don’t sleep on this versatile pair.

While this upcoming Nike Flyknit Racer is reminiscent of the popular multicolor offering from 2013, this actual model dubbed, “Rainbow,” utilizes the same vibrantly colored knitted aesthetic, although the application of a grey-colored tongue is the only notable differentiation.

Tonal black accents applied on the Swoosh branding across its side panels, laces, lining of its collar and portion of the midsole further solidifies its eye-catching palette, as it’s topped off by a white for the remainder of its sole unit.

You can purchase a pair at select Nike accounts worldwide starting Friday, May 13th for $150.

While I do know who Andre Agassi is, I was never one to get into tennis or tennis shoes. While it’s cool to see this shoe get the retro treatment, I don’t think this shoe is for me.

I’ve been a fan since its introduction in the 2000s. Even though it’s listed for females, it’s still versatile for males as well. The only downside is keeping it clean and large sizing.

The iconic Nike Air Max 90 has been transformed to fit the golf course, as the revamped design was actually prompted by pro golfer, Rory McIlroy, and his love of the silhouette.

?I wear Air Max casually off the golf course all the time,? McIlroy explains. ?Making it into a golf shoe really brings something new to the golf course. Not only is it different and very cool but it also performs well, giving me the comfort, traction and stability that I need.?

Now introduced as the Air Zoom 90 IT, the silhouette essentially maintains its iconic runner profile, while a custom Zoom Air sole is applied in the forefoot to offer lightweight and responsive cushioning. The upper boasts a waterproof, one-piece bootie construction, as a versatile rubber outsole with integrated traction allows golfers to wear the shoe both on and off the course.

Other notable details include complementary laces, matching pull tabs implemented on the tongue and respective branding situated on the rear, side panels, tongue and insoles.

McIlroy recently debuted the shoe this week at the Players Championship. You can purchase this inaugural black/white pair at select Nike accounts on May 13, with the white/black version to follow on June 1st.
