Gourmet trainers is all of the above. For Years, refined Italian and casual All-American men’s looks have been imitated, rehashed, reworked and reinterpreted season after season but never before have they collided as they do in Gourmet footwear. Gourmet is both high and low, style forward yet familiar, chic and gauche. Each piece possesses an understated complexity that underlies Gourmet’s high concept DNA.

Legends live forever and the Air Max 90 is no exception. A timeless running silhouette brought to life in 1990 by Tinker Hatfield, its legacy lives on around the world.
Over the years, it’s been re-imagined, redesigned, and remade; done up in a variety of ways, from all-over graphical treatments to traditional mesh, leather and suede builds. The Air Max 90 once again raises the bar this season, with a design that blends an iconic colorway with modern updates.
The new look maintains recognizable Air Max design language with hits of Infrared where it matters most. The toebox and ankle are both covered in off-white premium suede, creating a new look that still screams classic. Washed denim replaces the typically suede overlays and toecap, while a snakeskin-inspired Swoosh adds another subtle pop.
A classic has been redone
Experimental, iconic, re-imagined, and reinvented: the Air Huarache Run returns to the spotlight with two new, juxtaposed colorways.
Featuring predominantly black and red tones, both low-cut profiles employ distinct cues from the design language of sandals worn by early South American inhabitants. Updated for performance in the ‘90s, and now again, for present-day comfort when trekking through the streets, the Air Huarache Run continues to evolve as the times change.
With a fit that’s as snug as a waterski boot, a neoprene inner sleeve holds true to Tinker Hatfield’s original Huarache design that took off in 1992. Now, the design is tied together with a contrasting color-blocked heel cage, replicating the exoskeleton structure that made the original Air Huarache Run a staple on and off the track.
“Nike’s Air Max 95 needs no introduction, 18 years on from its introduction the famous runner still impresses with its forward thinking, innovative design. This new version for 2013 is constructed suede uppers, successfully playing on the 95’s classic panelled design and is finished with embroidered branding and 3M reflective detailing all sat on top of that iconic visible air sole unit.”
