If you’re from Chicago, there are certain shades of navy and orange that don’t need an explanation. The Nike Air Max 90 “Chicago Bears” wears them proudly. This pair gets an NFL makeover that’s unmistakably Chicago. One look and my mind is already at Soldier Field on a Sunday afternoon.

Should You Buy the Nike Air Max 90 ‘Chicago Bears’ (2026)?
Two of the eight Rivalries pairs are already gone from Nike, two days in. The Bears is not one of them. Call that patience rewarded or call it a city that bought the jersey first, but nobody in Chicago is paying resale for navy and orange.
