Originally released in 1990, the Air Max 90 was designed by Tinker Hatfield. Taking cues from previous Air Max designs, he accented the Air Unit in the heel with a bold window in colours such as the Infrared (originally called the 'Hyvent Orange').
Initially called the Air Max III, the Air Max 90 was renamed in 2000, and the silhouette was reissued in 2001 with a tumbled leather upper.
Dave's Quality Meats (DQM) developed a bacon-based Air Max 90 in 2004, which started the trend of wild concepts on the AM90. With only a few minor differences from the original, the AM90 was retro released in 2008, 2010 and 2015.
Nike redesigned the model for its 30th anniversary in 2020 by slimming down the panels, toebox, and heel.
There is no doubt that the Air Max 90 is one of the most iconic silhouettes in footwear history. As Nike's most successful Air Max model, the Air Max 90 features a bold, aggressive design 'made to look fast'. Originally, it appealed to hardcore runners and sneaker fans, but the model gradually gained a following in a variety of other places as well.
Due to its street-style vibe and low-top design, this sneaker can be worn with almost any outfit, and this flexibility helps it remain popular in the modern day.

Virgil Abloh and his brand Off-White reconstructed the Air Max 90 in 2017, exposing its 'guts.' Due to its insane popularity, the drop of 'The Ten' sold out instantly.
The ten shoes were divided into two themes - 'REVEALING' used hand-cut, open-source and reconstructed designs on an Air Jordan 1, Air Max 90, Air Presto, Air Vapormax and Blazer Mid.
The second of the themes, 'GHOSTING', saw translucent uppers used on a Converse Chuck Taylor, Nike Air Force 1 Low, Zoom Fly SP, Reach Hyperdunk 2017 and Air Max 97.

These two giants have cooperated on a few times, but their first unofficial collaboration came in 2006, with the 'Homegrown' hue, in honor of the opening of State Magazine. The 'Homegrown' shoe combines elements of Dutch streetwear and hip-hop culture. The silhouette gets its name from the grass green hue on the top.
This upper is constructed of fine suede and leather with a leaf texture that pays homage to Amsterdam's world-famous cannabis culture. This material option is regarded as one of the nicest and most desirable in Air Max 90 history.
From the colouring to the idea, this Grass with Orange Blaze shoe remains one of the most unusual designs. As a result, the pair is still fetching high prices. The asking price on shops such as StockX ranges from €1600 to €4000.
