The Nike Air Max Plus "Aqua Blue Metallic Silver" also nicknamed 'Tiffany' is a striking edition of the iconic TN, blending heritage design with a bold, refreshing colorway. Originally released exclusively in Europe in February 2021, this model was reissued in December 2024, but only in Japan, making it a highly sought-after regional exclusive.
This iteration of the Air Max Plus stands out with its vibrant aqua blue upper, constructed from a honeycomb-patterned mesh material, which not only enhances breathability but also adds texture and depth to the design. The signature TPU cage overlays, a defining feature of the Air Max Plus, come in a deep black hue, providing a sharp contrast against the bright upper and reinforcing the sneaker’s structure. A clear plastic toe cap adds durability while maintaining the sleek, aggressive aesthetic that the TN is known for.
Further elevating the design, metallic silver mini-Swooshes are placed on the lateral sides, subtly enhancing the premium feel of the sneaker. The tongue and inner lining feature a soft black textile, ensuring comfort while maintaining a cohesive look. The lacing system integrates black eyelets, complementing the darker elements of the shoe while securing the fit.
The midsole stays true to the original Air Max Plus DNA, featuring the classic Tuned Air cushioning system housed within a dual-density foam midsole. The visible Air units in the forefoot and heel provide exceptional comfort and responsiveness, while the black midsole contrasts sharply with the aqua blue upper, grounding the overall aesthetic. Completing the design, the rubber outsole features a gradient fade effect transitioning from black to a smoky translucent finish, adding a subtle yet impactful detail.
The 2024 re-release of this exclusive colorway was limited to Japan, making it a rare find outside the region. Retailing at ¥23,100 JPY (approx. $155 USD), the sneaker was made available through select retailers, including atmos Japan and Nike Store Japan.
It's also now available on the different sneaker marketplaces with global shipping.
