The Nike Air Max Plus is no stranger to unabashedly borrowing colorways from fellow Air Max classics, but this latest release doesn’t need to reach that far to make the connection. Inspired by the original “Celery” colorway of the Air Tuned Max, this upcoming Air Max Plus deftly adapts one of the most recognizable sneaker colorways of the late 1990s.

Featuring a standard Air Max Plus construction, these upcoming release utilizes an anodized metallic upper to achieve that signature copper look across the upper. A dark wine red overlay on the lava cage as well as the mudguard adds a bit more rouge to the colorway, while the exposed metallic gold at the midfoot and outsole provides an elegant touch. Our favorite detail is undoubtedly the Tuned Air cushioning unit on the insole at the heel!

A NIke.com release is coming soon; see the official images ahead.
