Description
Nike’s yearly Be True pack has honored diversity, equal rights, and unapologetically being yourself every year since 2012, and one of the crown jewels of this year’s five-silhouette Pride flag-inspired collection is unquestionably the Air Max 90. Using a white, grey, and black base with a octadic serving of colored accents, these 90s provide bold pops of flair everywhere you look. Their main design detail arrives via the midfoot Swoosh, which features a multi-layered embroidered design, serving up one check for each of the original Pride flag’s eight colors. More vibrant accents are also dispersed around the upper: purple, orange, pink, and blue all appear on the eyestays, red graces the mudguard badge, blue is swathed across the heel overlay, a hit of yellow is equipped on the midfoot, and a light ocean blue makes an appearance on the outsole. The insoles are also split, with the left shoe featuring a pink base adorned with the BE TRUE motif and artist/activist Gilbert Baker’s — the man who created the Pride flag — signature, while the right opts for colorful stacked rectangles with various words of affirmation.
