The Nike Air Max 90 is no stranger to a patriotic look. Some of the most coveted pairs of the silhouette, from the “Independence Day” pair to “Moon Landing” proudly wear American iconography- but most admire those from a distance, each a “grail” type shoe that’s costly to get your hands on. With eyes on changing that, the latest edition of the model makes your July 4th fits a more accessible proposition via the Nike Air Max 90 “USA.”

Though the shades are twisted a bit, there’s no mistaking the red white and blue that pops through this shoe’s profile. Though it would have been a successful application if Beaverton designers left it at that, the rest of the shoe takes on some interesting detail. First and foremost, the tongue swaps to an all-over chain link print, with its steely gray reflected throughout the profile. Swatches of textured suede on the webbed overlays and Swoosh also lends a premium atmosphere, elevating this above your run-of-the-mill GR pair.

The Nike Air Max 90 “USA” is set to arrive this Summer, carrying a $130 retail price. Take a look at official images below.

Elsewhere for the Swoosh, the basketball slate is heating up with Kevin Durant’s producer pack, headlined by the KD 17 “Metro Boomin” and KD 17 “Alchemist.”
