This upcoming kids release of the Air Max Plus 3 is quite standard in its construction. It stands out for its use of hot red and scorching yellow — the same colors used in the iconic Tuned Air logo. Whether deliberate or coincidental, this Air Max Plus 3 captures that classic Air Max look that retro loyalists have always had a soft spot for.
A release is coming soon to Nike.com in GS sizes; we’ll update you on availability and sizing options.
