Nike's Air Max 90 Gets a Lightwash Denim Makeover

— April 7, 2022 — Lifestyle
Nike introduces the Lightwash Denim design iteration to its iconic Air Max 90 sneaker model for the season. The shoe's upper is entirely wrapped in the light denim material complete with double-stitched seams for security and raw edges for a distressed look.

Touches of pastel blue are paneling across the upper around the eyelets and the outcropped branding tabs that can be found on the lateral side of the shoe. Additionally, there are vermillion colors that make up the heel tabs and the Swooshes on the side. Denim emblems are added at the Air Max tongue patch and it all sits on top of a crisp white and pale blue sole unit foundation with the iconic Air Max unit.
