Nike Air Max Plus Goes Full Leather With Sunset Gradient Accents

The brief resurgence of the Nike Zoom Spiridon appears to have cooled after only a small run of retro colourways, but the Air Max Plus continues to enjoy a steady stream of new interpretations.

This time, the 1998 classic trades its usual mesh base for a full leather construction, finished in deep black across the rippled cage, detailing, and midsole. Bright “Sunset” references remain a key feature, highlighted by a vivid orange mini Swoosh and a glowing gradient that flows through the midfoot shank and visible Air units. While the dark, premium build recalls other leather-based Air Max models, this release signals a wider push toward reworking heritage silhouettes with elevated materials and bold accent treatments.
