The Nike Air Max 90 Infrared Gets a GORE-TEX Makeover
On it’s way to keep us covered this winter, the Swoosh presents the Nike Air Max 90 Infrared GORE-TEX.
If we’re talking about Nike Air Max 90 heritage, ‘Infrared’ springs to mind almost instantaneously. Debuting in 1990 as the models first ever colourway, the palette has birthed many iterations since. And rightly so! After all, what’s not to love about a plethora of greyscale hues injected with striking neon hits?
In 2020, sneaker enthusiasts had the chance at copping a re-release of the authentic OG presentation, and now the veteran returns with a GORE-TEX refashioning. Yes – you’ll be able to rock the nostalgic steeze with the peace of mind that no drizzle will dampen your vibe. Waterproofing technology coming in clutch as always – nice one Nike!
This isn’t the first time that the Swoosh have implemented a GORE-TEX framing to the AM90 – also utilised within the iterations ‘Cargo Khaki’ and ‘Anthracite’. Expressing the conventional palette of white, grey, black, and of course ‘Infrared’, this iteration boasts a streamlined persona. Constructed from a mixed textural offering of leather, textile and synthetics, the kicks are equipped for whatever weather conditions may arrive. GORE-TEX call-outs replace the usual AM90 branding – a gentle reminder of the goated tech to thank for this durable iteration.
The Swoosh are yet to confirm a drop date for the Nike Air Max 90 Infrared GORE-TEX (FD5810-101), although the streets are saying it’ll be sooner rather than later. In the meantime, shop the latest Nike AM90 offerings via the banner below…
