The legendary Nike Air Max 90 silhouette, designed by Tinker Hatfield himself, will be 35 years old in 2025. While the Swoosh label will undoubtedly commemorate the model with a number of collaborations, including a new “Waves” design with Patta, fans can also expect a slew of in-line colourways and special packs to be released throughout the year in honour of this significant milestone. One of their upcoming offerings that seems to have sparked quite a bit of interest on the ‘net is the Nike Air Max 90 “Racing” pack, inspired by the world of motorsports.

A Closer Look At The Collection

The Nike Air Max 90 “Racing” pack has so far been shown in three different colourways: a sleek Red/Black design, a more subdued “Neutral Grey/Obsidian” palette, and a vivid “Mandarin/Blue Fury” option. Even though the colour schemes of each of these shoes may differ significantly, the pack is held together by recurring design elements. From the insoles’ shared vintage racing-inspired “90” lettering, the shoe’s luxurious leather and suede construction, the uniform colour blocking, and even the matching black contrast soles, there’s no mistaking the link between these designs. The only thing left to do is wait for the official release date to speedily snatch up your preferred pair from this chic collection.

Nike Air Max 90 “Racing” Release Details

As of right now, Nike.com and a few other retailers are expected to debut these race-inspired sneakers sometime in the spring of 2025. However, exact details have yet to be confirmed.
