About Nike Air Max 90 Shoes
The Air Max 90 is known for its layered upper, visible Air unit, waffle-inspired outsole and angular support panels.
Because the Air Max 90 uses a layered heritage running upper, replacement laces should remain close to the original shape, width and length rather than being selected only by colour.
Choosing Replacement Laces for Nike Air Max 90
A medium flat lace is the closest starting point for most Nike Air Max 90 releases. Pear's current reference lists flat laces, although special editions, children's sizes and later versions can differ.
Measure one original lace from tip to tip and compare its width before ordering. This is more reliable than using the model name alone.
Choosing Colours for Nike Air Max 90 Laces
Neutral colours preserve the familiar Air Max 90 appearance, while contrast colours can highlight the Swoosh, upper panels, heel details or sole.
Keep the replacement close to the original width so the new colour changes the style without making the lace appear oversized or too narrow.
Caring for Nike Air Max 90 Shoelaces
Remove the laces before cleaning and hand-wash them gently with mild soap and cool or lukewarm water. Air-dry them completely before relacing.
Avoid bleach, aggressive scrubbing and high heat, particularly on coloured, reflective, personalised or metal-aglet laces.
