Nike Air Max 180 “Tan/Yellow/Brown”

While this year, the early reign of the Nike Air Max 180 has been defined by returning to OG colorways, the full-width Air model has begun to spread its wings as its time back on the shelves has grown. Early indications are that the model won’t go anywhere in 2025, as a new colorway just hit the newswire alongside some confirmed drops for next year.

Here, the model uses a naturalistic blend of tan, brown, black, and orange, almost venturing into Nike ACG territory if not for the complementary nature of all these shades. Despite the adjacency on the color wheel, the dark sole unit certainly creates an appealing light/dark contrast. If this indicates the direction Beaverton is taking the Air Max 180 in 2025, it’s encouraging – showing they’re willing to carve out new lanes with the ’91 silhouette.

As of writing, concrete release info and retail pricing elude us. However, these images surfacing in the first place point to a Spring ’25 release window, with MSRP likely to hover around the typical $160.
