This pair could probably take the “Dark Knight” nickname all by itself. Out of Nike’s three “Batman”-nicknamed Air Maxes, the Air Max 90 might be the darkest of them all. Almost everything stays black, with just a few Chrome Yellow details breaking through.
My favorite is the yellow Nike Air on the heel. Against all that darkness, it calls out almost like a little Bat-Signal.
