Nike Air Max 90 Laser

In the early ’00s, laser engraving on leather became a breakthrough technology in sneakers, celebrated here across the NIKE AIR MAX 90 LASER. Taking inspiration from how a tree develops layers over time, the sneaker’s unique one-piece premium leather upper has concentric wood patterns in a dark brown finish, while also replicating the form and features of a classic Air Max 90. No lumberjacks were needed for this style—just a laser and a sneaker designer.

The NIKE AIR MAX 90 LASER is due to release on TUESDAY 10 AUGUST: follow the images to check it out ahead of the drop.
