The Nike Air Max Plus “Pure Platinum / University Red / Black / White” refines the iconic Tuned Air silhouette with a clean, high-contrast color palette that emphasizes its signature aggressive design lines. The upper is built on a Pure Platinum gradient mesh base, giving the shoe its familiar wavy fade effect, while University Red accents highlight the branding and small detailing throughout the upper. Black overlays form the signature TPU cage structure that defines the Air Max Plus, and white touches on the midsole and Air units help balance the overall look with a sharper, more versatile finish.

Originally designed by Sean McDowell, the Air Max Plus is known for combining bold styling with performance-inspired cushioning. This pair features Nike’s Tuned Air system, which uses pressurized Air pods in the heel and forefoot to deliver responsive impact protection and stability. The breathable mesh upper promotes airflow, while synthetic reinforcements add structure and durability for everyday wear. A supportive midfoot shank and durable rubber outsole complete the design, making it a reliable lifestyle sneaker with strong roots in late-’90s running innovation.

The Nike Air Max Plus Pure Platinum University Red Black White was released in 2024 with a retail price of $180.
