Honing in on the Air Max Plus proper, this new “Rebellious Air” colorway is arguably the Beaverton brand’s most scintillating in recent memory, delivering an ensemble of vibrant colors and impactful design choices. Right off the bat, you’re hit with a bright “Fireberry” shade at top portion of the base, which transitions into “Pure Purple” towards the midsole in a familiar gradient arrangement. The pattern gets flipped on its head on the lateral TPU overlays, while on the medial side, white treatments take over for “Fireberry” in an impactful departure. Moreover, the medial view also introduces “Volt” to the palette via the mini Swoosh, complemented by additional hits on the insoles and outsole in electric fashion. Otherwise, black treatments on the tongue, lining, mudguard, and midsole, provide an agreeable backdrop. Given the shoe’s eccentric palette and relentless color swaps, it’s more than worthy of its “Rebellious Air” moniker. For this Sean McDowell-designed silhouette, a fireberry gradient anchors the mesh base while complementing pure purple arrives on the signature wavy TPU overlays. Lastly, the pair boasts Nike’s Tuned Air system utilized with two polymer hemispheres to ensure a smooth run. Rounding out the final design cues are the yellow “TN” logos on the heels and the 3M reflective.
