Nike is relaunching its ‘Kiss My Airs’ collection, bringing a new metallic silver and black colorway for the popular Air Max Plus silhouette. The shoe features an electric blue Swoosh which serves as a contrast to the mostly neutral base design. The TPU cage has been dipped in a solid black shade to match the toebox, laces, lining, and heel. Additionally, the midsole, mudguards, tongues, and heels are decorated with a grey safari-style print.
The ‘Kiss My Airs’ tagline can be seen on the lateral tag, and additional branding can be found on the heels. Another pop of icy blue coloring sits on the arch area of the midsole and extends to the outsole.
2023 will see the release of the $175 USD Nike Air Max Plus "Kiss My Airs" at select shops and online at Nike.
