New pics of a Jon Burgerman designed Nike Air Max 90 recently hit the Net. Burgerman, a British Character artist, is probably best known, in the States at least, for his work on the WipeOut Pure Video game. The Jon Burgerman x Nike Air Max 90 features Burgerman's trademark character designs in Neon Blue on a Black mudguard. The rest of the sneaker follows suite with a Neon Blue mesh toe box, ankle collar, and tongue, an Infrared patent Swoosh, and a Black midsole/sole.
At this point a release dater for the Jon Burgerman x Nike Air Max 90 has not been confirmed. Once a release date becomes available, it will be posted.
