The Nike Air Max 90 "Medium Olive" Releases November 2026

The Nike Air Max 90 is getting a refined makeover for November 2026, arriving in a "Medium Olive" colorway that trades the silhouette's familiar mesh panels and Air Max badging for a cleaner, leather-forward presentation. The result is one of the quieter takes on the 90 in recent memory, leaning on material quality and tonal consistency rather than the usual branding hits.

Smooth olive leather covers the toe box and sides where mesh typically lives, while perforated leather replaces the standard plastic eyestays around the lace area. The heel follows the same logic, featuring a perforated tab with no raised Nike Air logo and a blank stitched panel in place of the side Air Max lettering. Nike branding does remain on the tongue and insoles, keeping the shoe recognizable without overpowering the understated design. Olive carries across the Swooshes, laces, mudguards, and stitching throughout the layered upper, with small perforations also appearing on the tongue and mesh lining the padded collar inside.

Most of the contrast lands at the sole unit, where a dark ribbed frame wraps the visible heel Air cushioning. The midsole stays olive above it, while dark rubber runs the length of the outsole with waffle tread at the forefoot and a slight wrap up the toe.

The Nike Air Max 90 "Medium Olive" is set to release on November 13th, 2026 via Nike and select retailers for a retail price of $170. To stay informed on all things Nike and to stay up to date with the latest releases, connect with us on Instagram and Twitter.
