The Nike Air Max Plus carries quite the reputation. It’s an iconic silhouette to be sure, but also one that’s long been embraced by street criminals, youth gangs, and pharmaceutical peddlers in certain corners of the world. This upcoming colorway leans right into that somewhat menacing legacy, coming to a corner near you for Spring/Summer 2026.

Retailer images show a predominantly red upper with a black gradient covering the back half, a look that’s mirrored on the TPU cage and midfoot plate. Pure black hits appear on the Swoosh, lace loops, Air bubbles, and outsole, while yellow accents make their usual rounds across the TN system and heel logo. Not exactly ideal for running from the cops, but certainly good for flexing you’ve got bread to invest in your rotation.

The Nike Air Max Plus “Red/Black” releases Spring/Summer 2026, priced at $185. See official retailer images below if you’re already plotting to cop.
