You already know all about “Reimagined” Jordans, so how about reimagined Air Max? The iconic running and lifestyle line is approaching March 2027 with a “Lost Samples” pack consisting of wonderfully pre-aged takes on some of its most iconic styles. Right alongside the Air Max 1 “Sport Red” comes a likeminded take on the always iconic Air Max 90 “Infrared,” shown here via retailer images ahead of its Spring 2027 launch.

Made to look like a pre-release sample that’s been sitting in the back of a storage closet for three decades, the Air Max 90 “Lost Samples” features a handful of notable color blocking changes from the pair we all know and love. First and foremost is the inner lining, here appearing in off-white rather than grey so as to match the aged mesh upper and midsole. The tongue sports a faded Nike tag, while a close up look at the vamp reveals some exposed foam. The quarter is made from cracked grey suede and the mudguard from cracked black leather. Infrared fills out the midsole wedge and heel badge in familiar fashion, albeit with an aged, almost chipped away paint finish. The route taken here is essentially the same as that of the Air Jordan 1 High “Lost And Found” aka “Chicago Reimagined,” actualizing an iconic colorway through a pre-aged lens, and quite well at that.

Two more pairs are included in the Air Max “Lost Samples” pack, the aforementioned Air Max 1 as well as a new flip on the Air Max 95 “Neon.” The pack is scheduled to release during Air Max Month 2027 next March, with these Air Max 90s coming in at $145.
