The Air Max is probably the most famous sports shoe in the world. Together with the Air Jordan it has helped to make Nike the leader of the global sporting goods market. Exciting design and revolutionary technology are the secrets behind the success of the Air Max. The idea for this iconic shoe comes from the 1970s: Frank Rudy adapted the blow rubber moulding technique used in space travel technology to sole manufacturing in the shoe industry and thus invented the Air Pad. Ten years later, in 1987, he worked with shoe designer Tinker Hatfield and invented the very first Air Max. The Nike Air Max 90 was created in the 1990s and then became the most distinctive and best-known model in the Air Max range. It ensured that the Air Pad would be indispensable for everyone who is aware of fashion and sport, and a distinctive characteristic of advanced shoe technology. The Nike Air Max 90 is still a very successful product on the market, and it appears in fashionable and sport variations in the form of the Nike Air Max 90 Women and the Nike Air Max 90 Men.
A distinctive design icon Infrared or luminous red - these terms both refer to the same shade: it is the very striking colour that made the first appearance of the Nike Air Max 90 in 1990 so unforgettable. There were a few other details that made this shoe series stand out from the crowd, whether in the Nike Air Max 90 Essential version, or in the Nike Air Max 90 Premium. The Nike Air Max 90 can be identified by the large Nike heel logo in a contrasting colour. This design also includes coloured lace panels on the top of the shoe. The contrasting colour of the Air Pad matches this shape. It makes no difference whether you buy the Nike Air Max 90 Women or Men - the design principle has remained the same in all versions since 1990. Your new Nike Air Max 90 Essential or Nike Air Max 90 Premium are iconic shoes with a very high recognition value.

The Nike Air Max 90 Essential achieves excellence in both manufacture and design. You can choose different styles from a wide range of colour combinations, from tastefully classic shades to bright, modern colours. On the side of every Nike Air Max 90 Essential there is a swoosh: the large, sweeping Nike logo that is a stylised representation of the wings of Nike, the Greek goddess of victory. A typical Nike Air Max 90 has a visible Air Pad in the sole, enclosed in a colourful frame. The lace panels on the top are also made in contrasting colours in most versions of this model. The upper part of the Nike Air Max 90 Essential is made of leather or suede, and the sole is made of rubber in waffle format. The toe part of the Nike Air Max 90 Essential has double stitching.
