About this deal
With a futuristic textured upper and unmistakable silhouette, the Nike Air Max Plus breathed new life into the late '90s footwear phenomenon. First designed for performance running, the visible Max Air units in the sole deliver soft cushioning for easy push-offs and landings. Nike Tuned Air technology provides high-tech comfort and stability with every step. The Nike Air Max Plus has an upper constructed of mesh and enclosed by a TPU cage of wavy lines, meant to both conjure images of palm trees and ocean waves, as well as provide structure to the lightweight upper. Tuned Air branding in an orange octagonal patch usually appears on both the tongue and the heel tab. The Nike Air Max Plus has become known for some of its more colorful uppers, including the OG Pimento colorway that was originally meant to evoke images of a sunrise. Originally designed as a running shoe, the Nike Air Max Plus debuted in 1998, created by Sean McDowell, who was inspired by the swaying palm trees he noticed when he was on holiday on the beaches of Florida. Also known as the Nike Air Max TN, TN standing for Tuned Air, the Nike Air Max Plus has found fame over the decades in the US, as well as internationally.
