Picking up where other premium Air Max 90s such as the "Side A/Side B" pack and "Vinyl" left off this year is a new take on the runner as it approaches its 30th anniversary.

Dubbed "New Species," this colorway flips the Air Max line's popular animal print themes with new materials. Based around a grey skived nubuck upper, a scaly reptile-like texture reminiscent of the Air Yeezy 2 fills in the tongue and overlays. Color accents are provided by a beige liner and eyelets along with Electric Green hits on the Swoosh and translucent ICE midsole.

Fans in the States will want to take note that this "New Species" Air Max 90 is set to drop exclusively in Europe this weekend on Sept. 28 for a retail price of $160, so you'll need to find a retailer that ships internationally.
