Fall-Centric Reflective Mudguard Footwear

Nike Gives the Air Max 90 Sneaker a Reflective Detail

— August 5, 2022 — Lifestyle
Nike introduces a new update that can be seen on its signature Air Max 90 sneaker model this season. Prepared for the fall, the shoe arrives in an olive and black colorway palette. The most notable element is found in the mudguard as it is detailed with reflective elements and has Swoosh emblems throughout the shoe.

The blend of olive and black are defined into two sections. The rubber sole unit that has the brand's Air technology is done in all-black as the upper is detailed with varying hues of olive green for a militaristic look. The upper itself is made from a base foundation of mesh materials for breathability and then leather overlaying on top.
