The subject refers to a specific colorway of the Nike Air Max 90 sneaker, typically featuring the maize and blue colors associated with the University of Michigan. These colors are often incorporated into the design through elements like the mudguard, swoosh, or accents on the upper. As an example, a shoe labeled with this designation would exhibit a predominantly blue upper with maize detailing on the side panel and heel.
The appeal of this particular colorway lies in its connection to the esteemed university and its athletic programs. For alumni, students, and fans of the Michigan Wolverines, footwear displaying these colors represents school pride and affiliation. Furthermore, limited-edition releases and collaborations featuring this palette often command a higher value in the resale market due to their collectibility and desirability among sneaker enthusiasts.
