Closer Look: AM 90 Air Attack Pack

90a I was surprised with the package that greeted me that Monday morning. Totally unexpected, but definitely appreciated. I love runners. I think I haven’t stressed that enough on my site. Whether they’re AMs (though I have yet to get my hands on the 90 Infrareds- Nike please! hook a brotha up!), ZXs, Saucony Shadows, or NB 574/1500/575s, runners rule everything around me. Yeah, I’d pick up a couple of hoop shoes here and there, a couple of board/boat shoes too, but vintage runners is what I rock on the daily.

So when this specially made Air Attack box was sitting on my desk that day, it definitely got me workin’ the right way that week. As you can see, these are the Air Max 90 with the metallic/reflectorized upper with the red outsoles. The AM90 is one of the more comfy AMs out there (though I’ve yet to try the 2009/2010s, I heard those are instant classics). I’m sure you’ve all seen the secret behind Nike Air video.

The Air Attack Pack’s been out the past month and is available at most Nike outlets- Nike Park BHS, Trinoma, Stadium GB5, and Urban Athletics among others. I’ve featured them a few weeks back, too. The Air Max 90- celebrating it’s 20th year this year comes in 4 other colorways, all rockable and coppable. The only downside to this model is that the 3M/reflectors crease with ease. But hey, you gotta wear every pair, so live with it.

I’d like to thank my sister for taking the photos for this Closer Look feature. Check her other photos, she’s really good. I also want to thank the awesome people who sent me the shoe. You know who you are. Enjoy the rest of the photos below.
