Nike unveils the newest Air Max Plus sneaker model drop and brings back the iconic Sunset colorway palette for the season. The shoe is known for its bright and contrasting tones and the re-release has been teased since the end of last year.
The sunset hues can be seen detailing the upper in a gradient application with yellow at the top and blending into a red hue closer to the back of the shoe. It rests on top of a crisp white midsole unit that is offset by the Air unit bubbles and the branding can be seen on the side of the shoe and the tongue. There is a small Swoosh in red on the side and it is enclosed by black laces.
