Earlier this month, EA Sports revealed that Josh Allen, superstar quarterback of the Buffalo Bills, will be the cover athlete for Madden 24, and the surprises keep coming. To build hype surrounding the latest installment of the Madden franchise, EA Sports enlisted the help of Nike to create the “Play Like Mad” Air Max 90.

Even if you aren’t a fan of the football series, you can enjoy this Madden-themed Air Max 90, full of references to America’s Game. On the quarter panel, Nike uses brown pebbled leather reminiscent of a football, and the dark brown mudguard has this year’s mantra debossed in it. And you can’t have a Madden sneaker without EA Sports branding on the tongue or the NFL badge hidden in the insole. Both shoes feature a white line stretching from the toebox to the tongue, mimicking lines on the field. Moving to the midsole, you’ll find the vibrant and visually pleasing Air unit, balancing the blue housing with red pillars.

Madden 24 releases on August 18th, so we suspect the EA x Nike Air Max 90 “Play Like Mad” will retail around the same time.

Sole Savy is unreal! With a busy schedule it’s hard to keep up on shoes, and the group keeps me up to date on releases, tips on how to manually cop, and a marketplace with killer deals from fellow like minded collectors. It’s changed the sneaker game for me!

@SoleSavy is the truth. They've helped me cop kicks I never would've imagined getting at retail. Members always willing to assist on drops too. And most of all, a REAL community of REAL sneakerheads. These guys should be the gold standard for sneaker communities! #LifetimeMember

My membership paid for itself three fold by being solely responsible for my union 4’s, mesh sacai waffles, sacai blazers, court purple aj1s, glow in the dark yeezy 350s, travis scott lows (which I traded to get desert ore ow’s), air max 1 londons, bc3’s for way under retail etc.

Can't say enough about SS. The stellar help with copping shoes is a given but it's the community that makes it extra special. Hands down one of the best decisions I made as a wannabe sneakerhead.

The community of sneakerheads and resources available to help manually cop are great and really will help you get more Ws. The Zoom calls for hyped drops like Union Jordan 4 only adds to the camaraderie while providing real time instruction
