As one of Nike Sportswear’s mainstays, we’ve seen the Air Max 90 adopt a number of variations to its original style, including Current and Vac-Tech versions. Next up, it looks like the iconic runner will don canvas for a couple of colorways. The Nike Air Max 90 Canvas will hit in both a black and a blue version, each featuring the titular textile over the entire upper with contrasting tones on the Swoosh, outsole and plastic rubber piecing, and a white midsole. Hit the jump for a shot of the obsidian pair, and stick with NB for news on a US release. Photos via facebook.com/CHMIELNA20

In a change of pace, one of the latest colorways of Nike’s iconic running shoe will borrow inspiration from a sport, but not one of the Big 3 (or 4). The Nike Air Max 90 Lacrosse, release date set for February at lacrosse specialty stores, sports plenty of eye-catching colors, opting for a white and two-tone blue leather upper contrasted by green accenting and an argyle inner-lining that incorporates the three aforementioned colors. Hit the jump to get plenty of looks and let us know if the first lacrosse-inspired AM90 is a must-have. Photos via InsideLacrosse.com

I could go into great detail on this shoe, prattling on endlessly as I tend to, but the simple fact is that iconic silhouettes, when denim is added, tend to be very well received. And so it is that I’m sure the new Nike Air Max 90 ‘Denim’ will be a hit, as the obsidian denim upper is perfectly set off with off-white accents. Hit the jump for plenty of looks and pre-order now at crookedtongues.com.

Recipe for a great shoe: take an iconic model; use classic color-blocking; add in simple colors, with maybe a pinch of a vibrant, eye-catching tone. That’s what makes the Nike Air Max 90 Black/White-Medium Grey-Volt, going for a white mesh-based upper, set against grey suede overlays, a black leather mudguard and volt accents. Hit the jump for plenty of looks and look for these now worldwide. Photos via asphaltgold.de

The Air Max 90 is one of the classics, beautiful in its simplicity and a perfect fit for a number of different materials, even if leather is the one that’s most frequently seen. This Nike Air Max 90 ‘Black Canvas,’ for example, goes for a faded black denim-like upper, contrasted by grey on the leather Swoosh and rubber piecing and a white midsole. Despite the unconventional fabric, this is one of the better Air Max 90′s seen in a while. Hit the jump for a few more looks and look for these at retail in early-2012. Photos via sneakerfreaker.com

The Nike Air Max 90 Ocean Fog/Black-White is now available at retailers nationwide, including online at eastbay.com. A fantastic new take on the iconic model, the Air Max 90 ‘Ocean Fog’ sports greyish-blue suede overlays against inset tonal canvas panels. Contrast comes by way of white on the Swoosh, midsole and midfoot rubber piecing, as well as black on the leather mudguard. Hit the jump for plenty more photos and look for these to retail at $95.

One of the great things about the winter months is that we start to see more and more dark colorways, to starkly contrast the lighter stuff that hits during the summer months. (Variety is always fun, right?) Today we get a good look at the Nike Air Max 90 Midnight Fog/Black-White, which goes for grey over the leather and textile upper, with just a bit complementary black on the inner-lining, Swoosh and rubber piecing and white only appearing on the “Air Max” text. A fantastic look for the dreary months, these are now available at spots like shelta.eu and nikestore.com.

The thermo-molded, vacuum-technology train just keeps rolling on, although more often lately an extra layer of creativity is being added. This time it’s a literal extra layer, as the smooth, no-sew Air Max 90 VT upper is covered in seamless felt (black with colored threads). That upper sits atop a simple white midsole, offset by black on the outsole and around the Max Air unit. Hit the jump for another look and stick with NB for updates. Photos via tenisufki.eu

Now in stock at NSW retailers like size.co.uk, the Nike Air Max 90 ‘Ripstop’ pack consists of three pairs of shoes. Coming in monochromatic black, navy and light grey, each shoe sports a ripstop nylon-based upper complemented by tonal leather on the mudguard and Swoosh. Hit the jump for looks at each pair, and stick with NB for further release news.

The latest in Nike’s thermo-molded Vac-Tech line, the Nike Air Max 90 Vac-Tech ‘Tweed’ sports the titular grey textile over a largely no-sew upper. (Quite the accomplishment for a fabric-covered shoe.) Hit the jump for plenty of looks and look for these (women’s sizes only at the moment) at overseas retailers at the moment; stick with NikeBlog for news on a US release.

The modern classics overhauled with Nike’s thermo-molding vacuum technology keep rolling in. Today, take a look at the Nike Vac-Tech ‘Grey/Orange’ Pack (a bit of a misnomer, in that inexplicably one of the four pieces breaks from the norm and is black/orange), featuring four silhouettes—Air Force 1 High and Low, Air Max 90, Dunk High—each featuring greyed out VT uppers and orange outsoles. Hit the jump for plenty of looks, and expect these in the US in the coming weeks.

From the Great Take on an Old Classic department, check out the new Nike Air Max 90 White/Grey-Obsidian-Volt. The upper goes for a simple combination of white mesh inlays, grey leather overlays and an obsidian leather mudguard, then finishes off the look with some bright contrast by way of the volt plastic piecing.

The female demographic occasionally gets overlooked when it comes to hot colorways of classic shoes, but not this time as the Nike Air Max 90 White/Purple comes exclusively in women’s sizes.
