While 2020 represents Wawasan 2020 for Malaysia, it also happens to be the 30th anniversary of one of Tinker Hatfield’s legendary designs, the Air Max 90. And to celebrate 30 years of a coveted silhouette, the Swoosh has updated the model for the future in the form of the Air Max 2090.
Harkening to the ethos of the original, a future forward design is implemented with the load bearing sections coloured in black, while the lighter supporting frame coloured in white. The Air Max 90’s logo, mudguard, and cassette are retained, 3 key elements that differentiate the silhouette from the rest.
The colourway takes inspiration from electric cars, colour schemes that Nike thinks will be the most common in 2090. The Air unit too has been given a 200% increase in size, enlarging the window to increase all day comfort.
Releasing in Spring, the shoe will release in stores and online globally for a price of RM 579.
