Tri-Tonal Sporty Shoes

Nike Launches a New Iteration of Its Signature Air Max 90 Shoes

— July 9, 2020 — Fashion
Nike recently unveiled a new tri-tonal iteration of its iconic Air Max 90 sneaker model following its patriotic USA colorway that launched last month. The latest update of the familiar silhouette boasts a blend of materials that construct the uppers before it is detailed with bright colors and patterning.

The top of the tongue features a shiny silver tag to contrast against the white mesh foundation. The upper eyelet panel is then highlighted with bright blue hues and Midnight navy blue around the forefoot. To round out the new update, the branding accent on the side boasts an University Red Swoosh accent. The most notable part of the shoe are the reflective details informed by gray stripes that decorate the full-grain leather uppers.
