We all know Nike loves to bring back colorways again and again. Some are such icons, like the all white Air Force 1, that they just keep making them nonstop. The Air Max 90 Infrared isn’t one such colorway, but it looks like we’re on the way.

Close on the heels of a recent Retro retro, the Air Max 90 Infrared seems to be on its way back. The aforementioned Retro retro was almost a faithful reissue were it not for the artificially yellowed midsole. The images we’re seeing on Instagram do not have that yellow sole. How do we know these aren’t just a carry over from someone’s super crispy 2010 release? The mesh is much wider.

Not to hedge, but it should be noted that the Infrared could be a darker shade of red, and this could be just another AM90 shoe. But it should also be mentioned that the Infrared 90 first came on the scene in 1990, so next year will mark its 25th year.

We’ll see.
