(Check out our review of the AM1 golf shoe here.) The Air Max 90 was the next shoe three years later and it carried on the legacy of the visible air bubble. Nike introduced air cushioning into their shoes in the late 70s, but only made it visible for the first time in 1987’s Air Max 1. I don’t need a pair of “running” shoes to hold up to bunkers, aggressive swing tempos, and damp conditions. This makes sense to me, however, as the golf shoe is designed to hold up under fairly rugged use. The golf shoe on the other hand is a little thinner, firmer, and a tighter fit. The regular sneaker is somewhat plush and has a typical 90s thickness to it. I’d be lying to you if I said wearing the Nike Air Max 90 Infrared golf shoes feels just like wearing the classic sneaker. If you aren’t familiar with the original AM90, Nike turned heads with this stylistic running shoe in 1990 and it has captured the hearts of generations of shoe fiends ever since. Even in regular sneakers, Nike commonly butchers classic shoe profiles and the colors will be off even though they’re supposed to be the same as the OG. I am admittedly very biased here, but Nike did an excellent job capturing the AM90 silhouette and keeping the colors true. How do the Nike Air Max 90 Infrared golf shoes look? Absolutely perfect, that’s how. So when the Nike Air Max 90 Infrared golf shoe release was announced, I was, let’s say…pretty excited.Īn Infrared Air Max 90 just slightly modified for golf? Yes, please.

Nike Infrared AM90s are one of those top 5. And they’re my top 5 by a mile, number 6 doesn’t even come close. My top-5 shoe ranking is not easy to break into and largely untouchable. You see, as a big shoe guy, I take my sneakers serious. This MIGHT BE the most excited I’ve been yet for a retro sneaker-inspired golf shoe. My sneakerhead tendencies are WELL documented here and many of these golf shoes have had this Chicago kid unreasonably excited. Nike Air Max 90 Infrared 2020 releases on November 28th via listed UK and European retailers.I’ve written quite a few reviews on this site for various Nike/Jordan golf shoes over the past years. The entire sass-master sits on a white lightweight midsole. Likewise, the AIR heel unit and the forefoot outsole pop in the same colour. It pops from the rubber eyelets, Nike tongue branding, collar panel, and the Air Max window on the sidewall. What about the colours?įirstly, the Infrared hues are just vibrant shades of neon red. Grey suede and black leather mudguard help your steps land safely. White takes the mesh underlays and helps your feet breathe, and also keeps warmth locked-in.

For example, the stretchy and bubbly nylon mesh underlays and the leather-suede overlays make an awesome team to keep the wearer snug and confident all day long. This pair intrigues your inner nostalgic sneaker-loving self and excites further with the high-quality engineering and modern features. There’s no doubt that this particular Infrared palette is releasing to be the show-stopper for the 30th anniversary of the Air Max 90 series. Speaking of other pairs, did you miss the Women's version of Air Max 90 dropping in a pastel multicolour aesthetic? You can still try your luck with it and, at the same time, set the trap to capture beasts like Laser Pink Concord and Christmas Green Red.

This combination only made it even more irresistible honestly! Sneaker hunters are starting to sharp their minds and eyes so that they don’t miss out. However, the true fans fall for the classic and bold Infrared theme every damn time! The stylish Swoosh trainers for running somehow kept this particular pair minimal and gave the high voltage Infrared accents a nudge with crisp white, stone grey, and pitch-black. Get ready for the smash because the Nike Air Max 90 Infrared 2020 is right on its way! This colour scheme might seem a bit overused to you.
