Nike Air VaporMax Plus 'Black Icy Blue'

About this shoe

The Nike Vapormax Plus Black Red Blue is an iteration of the 1998 Air Max Plus. A sneaker that looks to the past to propel you into the future, the Black Red Blue Nike Vapormax Plus features a neoprene upper detailed with a floating black TPU lacing cage, reflective tabs running up the tongue, iconic "Vm Air" logos on each heel and insole in yellow, minute Nike Swooshes in red, and Nike branded tongue tag with hints of yellow, blue, and red. This upper sits atop a VaporMax sole made of hard urethane and carbon rubber. What we love the most about the Nike Vapormax Plus Black Red Blue is how most of its features serve a purpose other than aesthetics. The Floating Cage around the foot not only mimics the 1998 Air Max Plus but also adds heritage style and support. On the other hand, the Rubber Pods in high-wear areas on the outsole add traction and durability. This shoe was released on May 12th, 2022. At the time, it retailed at $200.
