Nike Air Max 90 – Avatar “Na’vi”

Nike Air Max 90 "Na'vi"

“Avatar” destroyed box office records last year, and even well into 2010. As the biggest box office smash ever, it’s only fitting that Nike paid a little tribute to it with one of its classics, the Air Max 90. While the “Iron Man” Dunk SB is designed as an ode to Tony Starks’ special suit, the “Na’vi” colorway on this shoe shows love to the blue inhabitants of Pandora.

The uppers are dressed in a very unique print, which shows scales similar to a crocodile. Blue is the base color, but purple, teal, green and black all help out, adding a very realistic element to the skin. This look as obviously modeled after the Na’vi’s skin. The midsole combines white and blue, and yellow laces represent the characters’ eyes. For now it looks as though these will remain a sample, but you can grab the aforementioned Dunks later this year if you’re trying to make a cinema-sneaker connection.

    on second thought they couldv'e added hints of yellow throughout the upper instead of using the strings. i would've made all the words on the shoe yellow and the laces blue so they dont distract away from the beautiful material used on the upper…imo of course

  • Penus Helmetpincher

    I watched the whole movie with my hog out son. Straight scrappin son.

    word k-roc x 2, the yellow laces pop more than the "snake skin"-ish material of the entire upper. Regardless, heat.
