Nike will be releasing an upcoming “Python” Air Max 90 Pack that consists of the original 2003 version as well as the “Green Python” iteration shown here. Dubbed the Green Python colorway, this Nike Air Max 90 starts off with a black leather base that sets the tone for the shoe. The scales of the snakeskin fabrications add textured intricacy from the toe cap over to the profile and vamp with the rest sticking to a smooth leather or robust suede. The latter of which, in its almost velvety sheen, covers the entire mudguard over to the heel, adding perfect contrast to what is effectively a kit grand in its construction. Soft red hits ornament the back “Nike Air” logo as well as the inners of the Air unit while the tongue tab and midsoles prefer the bright face of a white shade.
Look for the Nike Air Max 90 “Green Python” to release on June 13th at select retailers and Nike.com. The retail price tag is set at $140 USD.
