Supreme®/Nike® Air Max Plus
Following its team-up with Fox Racing, Supreme has returned to reveal another collaboration with Nike. Accompanying this week’s Fall/Winter 2020 Week 8 Drop, the collaboration is centered around the popular Air Max Plus TN model that debuted back in 1998.
Designed by footwear veteran Sean McDowell, the shoe never-before-employed manufacturing techniques like sublimated upper treatment, thin welded TPU caging and of course the Tuned Air cushioning system. Launching with almost immediate international appeal, after more than two decades the silhouette still remains a cult favorite in New York, Paris, London and Down Under in Melbourne and Sydney.
Serving as the latest in Supreme’s long line of footwear collaborations with Nike, the upcoming Air Max Plus TN range created exclusively for the New York skate imprint features three distinct colorways. The takes on the footwear icon feature mesh uppers decorated with custom “SUPREME” logo TPU fingers on the sides accented by suede side and heel panels, and TPU toe caps. Aside from the contrasting Swoosh branding at the midfoot regions, mesh tongues are marked with raised TPU Supreme logos and Tuned Air markings at the heel and printed insoles. Elevating the shoe are polyurethane foam midsoles paired with Tuned Air assisted rubber outsoles with contrasting TPU shank plates. (via Hypebeast)
