Original Story (10/12/24): Patta is bringing back its popular “Wave” series for a new collaboration with Nike on the Air Max 90.

In 2021, the Amsterdam-based streetwear brand kicked off a run of Air Max 1 “Wave” releases, resulting in a total of six colorways dropping over the span of a year. The premium mesh uppers and wavy mudguards from that project are now being applied to another classic Air Max model.

Shared by Patta co-founder Edson Sabajo, our first look at the Patta x Nike Air Max 90 “Wave” reveals a grey mesh and nubuck construction, paired with a metallic silver swoosh and a wavy black leather mudguard. Sapphire accents are then added to the TPU eyelets, on the midsole around the Air bubble, on Patta-branded tongue tags, and on the rubber outsoles.

The Patta x Nike Air Max 90 “Wave” is expected to release in Summer 2025 via Patta, SNKRS, and select retailers. Grab a first look below and stay tuned to Modern Notoriety for updates.

Update (04/08/25): In addition to the “Sapphire” colorway, a “Cyber Green” iteration of the Patta x Nike Air Max 90 Wave has now surfaced. Both are expected to drop Summer 2025.
