The Nike Air Max 90 is offered up readily to every demographic, arriving in colorways both youthful (the Air Max 90 “Sound Wave”) and squarely grown-up (the Air Max 90 “Triple Grey.”) It’s hard to say that any of its recent looks have leaned as far into sophisticated style than the pair at hand, cooking up a combo of collegiate brown & “Light British Tan.”

At least for us, the earthy accents that dot the platinum white foundation call to mind elbow patches and corduroy blazers. Obviously the enduring sportstyle sensibility of the model tamps down that vibe a touch, potentially allowing you to sneak some refined aesthetics into your everyday looks. Suede swatches at the quarter continue the concept in material fashion. Finally, those with a keen eye will catch the closing touch that redoubles the elegant atmosphere with this shoe: chain-link like embroidery on the tongue.

The Nike Air Max 90 “Light British Tan” is coming soon to Nike.com and retailers, commanding a $130 MSRP upon arrival. Catch official images in the meantime via the gallery below.
