Nike unveils a look at its latest iteration of the Air Max Plus sneaker model, which is also known as the Nike TNs. The new update sees a fusion of blue and white tones throughout the silhouette and this is made to celebrate the city of Naples and the SSC Napoli.
Now, fans of the football club have the option of grabbing their own exclusive Nike sneakers to wear with the matching EA7-created kits. Nike branding adorns the side of the shoe, the heel, and the tongue unit. Notably, this is not an official collaboration with the football club, but more of an inspired colorway palette. At the heels of the shoes, it reads “Vir' Napule e po' muor'” which translates to “see Naples and die.”
