Gradient hues and the Nike Air Max Plus are a combo that’s stood the test of time. Celebrating its 25th anniversary this year, the Sean McDowell-designed silhouette draws inspiration from the captivating Florida sunsets over the beach.

This theme shines through in Nike’s latest grade school offering, featuring a vivid blend of tropical blue, orange, and yellow hues set against a white mesh base. A standout aspect of this model is the clear TPU overlays, designed to evoke ocean waves, which allow a full view of the gradient beneath. Unlike the OG Sunset Air Max Plus that is set to return later this year, the base of this sneaker appears in white to better reflect the tropical theme on this pair.

Enjoy detailed images below while we wait on official release info.

In related news, keep an eye out for the upcoming “Reflective” Air Max Plus, also set to launch later this year.
