Each season, we’re treated to a slew of Nike Air Max 90 looks, many playing off of the model’s grey-dominant early editions, simply tuned up with new accent shades or slightly altered compositions. That release cadence makes us all the more appreciative of colorways that diverge significantly from that home base, again on display with the Air Max 90 “Light Orewood Brown” that just hit the newswire.

We begin with a heavy dose of the titular beige tonality on the mesh and suede underpinnings of the shoe’s body, well-suited for the colder months this pair will arrive in. Navy accents on the lower eye-stays and heel tab bring color to the profile before the knockout punch arrives with a jet-black contrast sole underfoot. It can almost go without saying that classically-styled pairs of the Air Max 90 will always have their place on store shelves. Still, an edition like this reminds of how much unexplored territory there is for the silhouette, potentially something Beaverton will explore as we look ahead to the model’s 35th anniversary in 2025.

The Nike Air Max 90 “Light Orewood Brown” is expected to release in Spring 2025, retailing at $160. Enjoy the official images below and keep an eye on our Sneaker Release Dates page in the coming weeks for additional launch info.
