Air Max 90 Hyperfuse Infrared

The folks over at the Swoosh designed one of the most iconic running kicks of all time when they unveiled the technologically savvy and stylistically on point Air Max 90 over 20 years ago. While the mesh upper and visible air sole unit was novel concepts back in the 90s, the sneaker has displayed incredible staying power maintaining relevance today. Every sneakerhead worth his or her salt has a pair of Air Max 90s in their rotation, and most of them would probably like to add the pair pictured above.
What we have here is a fresh take on the most popular color schematic of the Nike Air Max 90 simply known as Infrared. This is one of the original colorways of the kicks and insights a good deal of clamor upon every rerelease. This time Nike has retro fitted the Air Max 90 Infrared with their latest and greatest Hyperfuse technology. While the color-blocking remains precisely the same as the original, the one-piece mesh technology offers an extremely fresh look for the coveted kick. Before you run out to try to track these down, know that these were an exclusive raffled off at the Crooked Tongues BBQ. Keep your eyes on the dreaded retail outlets for these, and expect to pony up a pretty penny and be bidding against me if you find these for sale.
Feast your eyes on this pair of Nike Air Max 90 Hyperfuse in the iconic infrared colorway. Don’t stare too long; however, as this bit of news will hit you especially hard if the images have convinced you that you absolutely need to get your hands on a pair: it’s safe to say you probably never will. That is, unless you were one of the attendees at the Crooked Tongues and Nike Sportswear CT BBQ this past Sunday, in which case you can enter the Crooked Tongues Twitter contest by submitting a photo of the kicks you were wearing, along with the hashtag #CTNSWBBQ2011.
