Nike Air VaporMax Plus

REVOLUTIONARY COMFORT MEETS AIR WITH ATTITUDE.

The Nike Air VaporMax Plus looks to the past and propels you into the future. Nodding to the 1998 Air Max Plus with its floating cage, padded upper and heel logo, it adds revolutionary VaporMax Air technology underfoot to ramp up the comfort and to create a modern look.

Benefits

• Originally designed for performance running, VaporMax Air technology provides lightweight cushioning that lasts.
• The floating cage around the foot mimics the '98 design, adding heritage style, support and that edgy look you love.
• The breathable and cushioned fabric on the upper combines with TPU details to provide comfort and durability.
• The rubber pods in high-wear areas add traction and durability.
• Bringing beach life to the city, the prominent TPU arch draws inspiration from a whale's tail and adds structure. The iconic TPU fingers nod to the OG's lines that were inspired from palm trees and ocean waves.

Nike Air VaporMax

After the 7-year journey from ideation to release, the Air VaporMax represents a new era in Nike innovation. To truly capture the feeling of “running on air,“ the designers restructured the Air unit to be attached directly to the upper. As you step down, each lug gets pushed into the Air unit, ramping up the pressure. Then, as you step off, the pressure releases creating springy bounce with superior flexibility. Made for runners, the futuristic technology was quickly adopted by the street, bringing this light-as-air feeling to the masses.
