Update February 10, 2025 – After the reveal of the Nike Air Max 1 ’87 'Snakeskin' earlier in December, Nike is venturing deeper into the wild with three additional releases: the Air Max 90 'Light Pink Snakeskin', Air Max 90 'Snakeskin', and Air Max DN Premium 'Snakeskin'.
The Nike 'Snakeskin' pack drops on February 11, 2025, at Nike and selected retailers.
Four unique styles, one bold look
The adventurous 'Snakeskin' collection gives three Nike Air Max silhouettes a wild upgrade. Pick your favorite and make a statement with your next outfit.
The first option for the daredevils among us is the Nike Air Max 90 'Snakeskin'. With its modern design and bold snakeskin print, this model is perfect for those who love to stand out. Featuring a fine snakeskin texture, it adds an unexpected twist - just like a snake in the wild that blends in before striking. This sneaker is a must-have for your collection.
The other variant is the Nike Air Max 90 'Light Pink Snakeskin'. With its striking print and fresh colorway, this sneaker exudes undeniable class. The reptile texture slithering across the upper, combined with crisp details, adds a touch of luxury - just like a true predator making its way through the jungle.
The third sneaker to be released is the Air Max DN 'Snakeskin'. Unlike the releases mentioned above, this sneaker features a snakeskin print over most of the shoe. Cream-colored details on the sole and upper complement the sneaker's subdued tones beautifully.
