The Nike Air Max 2090 is futuristic according to people.
It has set a new ground for the Air Max aesthetic.
Air Max 2090 has a larger Air Unit than Air Max 90.
The colour combination of the shoe is very fascinating.
The outsole, midsole and upper look stylish while providing the best comfort. Nike has made improvements on the outsole grooves to increase the flexibility of the shoe.
There is a huge difference in the performance of Air Max 2090 and Air Max 90; the Air Max 2090 comprises more advanced and newer technologies that help the sneaker look futuristic.
However, there are both negative and positive aspects of the shoe.
As it is a new shoe, there are certain positive points, one of them is its futuristic design with a touch of 90s class.
The upgraded Air Max is in these sneakers to increase the comfort of the shoe.
Infrared stitching on the sides of the shoe along with the classic logo looks very interesting.
The transparent midsole in the shoe stands out and is one of the most prominent things about it.
Nike Swoosh has been inserted in the ridges to increase the flexibility of the shoe.
Overall, the shoe provides great comfort, durability, and style.
As this shoe is new, according to some reviews, it has only one or two negative aspects; one is that the front end of the shoe crushes the toe.
The lace and tongue of the shoe do not provide the required fit.
In the following video, Seth Fowler shows how the Air Max 2090 looks on feet and goes on to provide some useful information on it.
He shows the view of the clear plastic mesh on the upper.
According to him, the fuse overlays on the upper enhance the durability of the shoe.

Nike Air Max 2090 comes in different colours and sizes.
It comes in women and men sizes as well as juniors, children, and infants. It is true to its size.
But to get a perfect size, it is better if you try it on in the stores first before ordering online.
According to different reviews, the shoe is very perfect in size; thus, it provides a good fit.
The front toe feels crushed a little, but ordering a bigger size will not just feel right.

will be a good fit.

April 11, 2020 at 12:30 pmIT is truth and I agree. There are certain features that running shoes need to have if they are going to be considered to be good. The shoe needs to be comfortable, fits good, offer high performance and has great traction. When it comes to the Nike Air Max 2090, it is able to do this extremely well. The comfort of the shoe is courtesy of the technologically advanced Nike Air Max Cushioning. The shoe fits very well thanks to the great lacing system as well an upper that is designed for runners. Good article anyway.

April 11, 2020 at 12:41 pmI have to say that Nike is a very well-known brand because my husband is a big fan of Nike. In the middle of last month, he already bought a pair of Nike Air Max 2090, which happened to be received from Nike’s express delivery at 5 last week, he said he liked this sneaker very much.

January 16, 2021 at 3:05 pmThanks for the review of the shoe. Really helpful
I just wanted to ask whether the shoes are waterproof or not?
Stephen
January 16, 2021 at 5:49 pmHi Muhammad,
Thanks for asking. I don’t think the Air Max 2090 is waterproof. It’s got mesh on the upper and the material used is not a waterproof material.

Recently I bought this Air max 2090 model from Nike WEbsite, it was a perfect shoes in fitting but when i walked indoor on smooth tile surface, i nearly had the shock of my life, the shoes were not gripping on the floor, i could hardly move without holding on to support. I couldnt figure out the reason behind this, Can anyone inform me what could be the reasons?
Stephen
October 11, 2021 at 8:45 amIt’s probably the outsole is not gripping enough on a smooth surface.
