To the max & back | Nike Air Max Plus Round-Up
The NIKE AIR MAX PLUS is a model that has buried itself deep into the hearts of streetwear enthusiasts and sneakerheads alike, sitting proudly on the top shelf alongside the rest of Nike’s legendary roster. Evident within the successful longevity of the kicks since their ‘98 debut, we’ve seen a plethora of adaptations and collaborations that have each brought a different level of heat to the table.
After being stunned by idyllic scenes of sunsets and palm trees during a trip to Florida, creator Sean McDowell had the genius idea to integrate these views throughout design elements of the Air Max Plus. And the result? A uniquely iconic model that boasts both a dynamic and outspoken aesthetic, ingraining its stamp in Nike history.
