Nike Air Max 90 "White Metallic Reflective" HV4517-100

The Nike Air Max 90 “White Metallic Reflective” proves why this silhouette still sits near the top of the rotation for so many UK sneakerheads. First released in 1990 as a performance runner, the Air Max 90 quickly moved from track to street. Decades later, it still feels current.

This edition leans into a crisp white base, giving the shoe that fresh-out-the-box energy. A textile foundation is layered with leather and synthetic overlays, building that signature panelling around the mudguard and heel. The structure feels solid. The shape stays true to the original design.

Metallic reflective accents are where things get interesting. Subtle in daylight. Sharp under flash or streetlights. It adds personality without overpowering the clean colour scheme. Ideal if you like your trainers understated but with a twist.

Comfort remains a key selling point. The visible Nike Air unit in the heel absorbs impact and provides lightweight cushioning for daily wear. Whether you’re on your feet all day or just out for a quick link-up, it delivers consistent support.

Underneath, the rubber Waffle outsole offers dependable traction and that unmistakable heritage look. It grips well on pavement and keeps the retro running aesthetic intact.
