The Nike Air Max Plus Drift continues to surface in new colorways, flooding shelves with an abundance of widely available styles following its debut earlier this year.

Official images now reveal a new “Viotech/Persian Violet” pair slated for Holiday 2024, complete with an assortment of aquatic colors that scream 1990s; a fitting choice given the standard Air Max Plus debuted in 1998. While similar in essence to the “Midnight Navy” colorway from April, this latest pair opts for less-imposing black and “Anthracite” on its outer shell and midsole, diverting eyes to the gradient base layer.

The Air Max Plus Drift hasn’t been met with much demand thus far, likely due to its lofty $185 price tag, non-traditional build, and considerable heaviness. On the bright side, that means fans of the new Air Max offshoot can easily find pairs on sale.

Currently, the Air Max Plus Drift “Anthracite/Black/Viotech/Persian Violet” is poised to hit shelves during the Holiday 2024 shopping season. If you’re staunchly loyal to the Air Max Plus proper, check out official images of the recently previewed “Shark Attack” colorway.
