Maha Amsterdam and Nike Revive the Total 90 Shox Magia

— July 3, 2025 — Fashion
Nike continues to work in collaboration with Nike to launch a return of the iconic Total 90 Shox Magia sneaker model. It is a unique hybrid model which is launched in 2003 with a Total 90 football boot, making up the upper and the signature Shox cushioning at the heel unit. This enhances the enhanced support with energy return and a futuristic design language.

This comes in two bold colorway options: the Metallic Silver palette and a Metallic Black hue. The Metallic Silver colorway leans into a futuristic language and boasts a high-shine silver hue with a black underlay and tonal black laces. Branding which moves to Maha Amsterdam, is placed on the tongue and embossed on a metallic foundation.
