Nike Air Max 90 Bright Citrus Hypervenom Drops May 2026
Nike is preparing a vivid new colorway of the Air Max 90 for late May 2026. The Bright Citrus Hypervenom iteration arrives at a standard $150 retail across Nike.com and select partners, marking another chapter in the silhouette's ongoing rotation.

The Air Max 90 continues its reign as one of Nike's most reliable vehicles for seasonal color experimentation. This May release pushes the dial toward vibrant territory with a Bright Citrus base, a neon-inflected palette that echoes the brand's affinity for high-visibility tones across its classic running catalog.
The Hypervenom designation carries its own weight—a reference to Nike's football legacy and a visual marker that suggests bold contrast work alongside the primary citrus element. It's the kind of chromatic approach that demands presence on-foot, particularly suited to warmer months when such intensity reads less as overwrought and more as seasonally aligned.
Release Details
The Air Max 90 Bright Citrus Hypervenom launches May 21, 2026, at $150 USD. Distribution spans Nike.com and a network of select retailers, meaning availability should prove reasonably accessible for those tracking the drop. This aligns with Nike's current strategy of staggered retail partnerships, which has kept the Air Max 90 pipeline diverse without oversaturating any single channel.
For collectors maintaining breadth across Nike's running archive, this colorway slots into the broader Air Max 90 ecosystem—a silhouette that has proven remarkably durable in the marketplace. With current Nike inventory running deep across platforms, and deals averaging 27% off across the brand's catalog, the May timeline offers buyers flexibility in planning purchases around their budget cycles.
