Nike Speeds Up The Air Max Plus With Racy Patterns And Carbon Fiber

Hitting retailers early Summer.

Nike Speeds Up The Air Max Plus With Racy Patterns And Carbon Fiber

The nearly half-decade long stretch of Air Max Plus dominance may be coming to an end, because another model from the iconic Air Max legacy is taking over. No sweat, however, because the Tuned Air classic is still pushing forward as one of the most popular, most consumer Air Max Retro models of the modern day and is happy to let the Air Max 95 have its moment during its milestone year.

Nike continues to unleash fresh batches of colorways season after season. More recently, they’ve reopened the doors to utilizing patterns on the lightweight upper as a nod to the original drops of 1999. This newly revealed pair features a pattern of ovals that clash together with the help of a yellow-to-green gradient, accomplishing a design that communicates speed and precision.

That’s not all: Nike has added a carbon fiber-like textile on the tongue and heel-guard to further radiate that lightweight and speed-focused aesthetic to match the running heritage of the Air Max Plus.

Pairs are beginning to appear at retailers, but expect a release on Nike.com in the coming weeks for $180. In other Air Max updates, here’s what to know about the Nike Air Max 95 Neon 2025.
