The original Nike Air Max 90 was renowned for its clean lines and timeless style. The Nike Air Max 90 G stays true to the icon with a few updates made for golf, like integrated traction and a thin overlay that helps keep out water. Heritage Look A combination of fused overlays, additional eyestays and strategically placed mesh capture the look of the original Air Max 90. The mesh has a thin, flexible overlay that helps keep out water and makes it easy to clean your shoes. Underfoot Comfort A foam midsole and Max Air unit in the heel cushion every step. Versatile Grip An integrated traction pattern gives you exceptional grip in various conditions. The design draws its inspiration from the iconic Waffle outsole on the original Air Max 90. In 1987, the Air Max 1 debuted with visible Air technology in its heel, allowing fans more than just the feel of Air cushioning—suddenly they could see it. Since then, next-generation Air Max shoes have become a hit with athletes and collectors by offering striking color combinations and reliable, lightweight cushioning.
