Infrared Air Max 90 Current.

             I picked these up a year after they released.  I slept on them until i read the best of on http://www.sneakerfreaker.com/.  After reading up on them I decided to pick up a pair.  I am glad I did.  I am a huge Air Max 90 fan, but they have gotten pretty stale the last five years in my opinion.  So I was glad when these came.  The worst part about AM 90's is when they put anything else besides mesh on the toe.  They crease so fucking bad!  I understand when you design a shoe that has been in existence since 1992( you can correct me if I am wrong, I don't do fact checks that often.) that asthetics for the eye are most importan aspect of desiging a colorway.  No matter how nice the leather on the toebox it will eventually look like smashed doo-doo. 

             That leads me to the best part about the current.  The FREE sole and mesh upper.  These shoe are so comftorable with the FREE sole, I have worn these for 12 hour straight once and my feet did not hurt once.  During the summer I break these bad boys out often.  The mesh on them is perfect.  I didn't have any problems with my feet sweating, and I could actually  feel the breeze running through my shoes. 

            I think the Currents have a more aerodynamic look to them, which for me is very appealing.  I am not a huge fan of chunky looking shoes.  You can rock these with shorts or jeans without worrying about them looking out of place on your feet.  Sadly after it's very short run in the beginning of its debut the Current has not been shown much love from Nike.  Nike is like Fox, they finally get something right( Arrested Development) and since it does not have a huge following it gets abandoned.  If they ever release new colorways for the Current I will be picking a pair up.
