Nike plans to bring back the original colorways of the Air Max Plus:
, a model that has been delighting French fans for 2 decades now. The Hyper
Blue is the master of ceremonies. The Orange Tiger will be released on the
24th followed by the Purple in December. The shoe with a blue gradient
overhung by black plastic “waves” remains the most iconic color. Its release
in 1998 has shaken the Hexagon. Impossible to walk the streets without seeing
its yellow mini Swoosh and orange air bubble on the feet of teenagers. In
2018, the “Shark phenomenon” is no longer as powerful as it was back then.
Besides, a lot has changed. Foot Locker no longer has exclusivity on the
Tuned Air. The image of the TN is also less sulphurous compared to its beginnings.
The main thing seems to me to be elsewhere. The respect of the connoisseurs
remains intact. Today, it is in the pantheon of the Air Max. Knowing the
importance of the Requin in France, this 20th anniversary is a major event
of the year. On sale for 170€ at Nike Store.fr : see the pair. Photos:
