- Wagyu's Delicious Nike Air Max 90 Is a Grade A Sneaker
Nike's next Air Max 90 isn't just good; it's a grade-A sneaker.
We can thank Wagyu for this particularly tasty Air Max. It's actually a Harlem brand founded by Walter Harvin, but the collaborative sneakers do play on the wagyu beef theme.
It features leather and suede layers, plus a metallic Swoosh and marbled details that reference the beef's texture and appearance. Wagyu's signature cow motif also shows up throughout the shoe in clever ways. It even comes with rope-style shoelaces, nodding to the raising process.
We've seen some impressive Air Max 90s over the years, including volcanic-themed versions and even soccer-coded options. But this one's got some serious beef (in the best way).

Unlike the authentic meat, which is expensive and only found in Japan, the Wagyu Air Max 90s are "inclusive to all, exclusive to none" according to the brand. Basically, these beef-flavored sneakers are for everyone.

They're now up for grabs on Wagyu's website for $150, alongside co-branded Tech Fleece hoodies and joggers. The collab will also drop on Nike's SNKRS app on September 12.
