Five colours go into a shoe this small. White forms the base, Particle Grey and Light Smoke Grey shade the panels, black outlines the branding, and Volt provides the single bright note, a yellow-green Nike has used across its lines since the late 2000s. Infant versions of the 90 are built for ease rather than performance. The opening is wide, the fastening is adjustable, and the sole is soft, but the visual details are kept faithful: the layered panels, the heel window and the waffle-pattern tread all survive the reduction in scale.
Nike released the pair in January 2020 at $45, the lowest price point the model is sold at. These smallest sizes exist mainly so families can match, which is why Nike runs the same palettes simultaneously across infant, toddler, preschool and adult bands. The grey-and-Volt arrangement here appeared on larger sizes of the silhouette in the same window.
