Nike Golf Readies the Air Max Plus for the Players Championship

Who would've known that Sean McDowell's running-informed Nike Air Max Plus design from 1998 would end up becoming a golf shoe?

Ahead of the Fall 2025 season, the Swoosh's 18-hole-obsessed cohort has borrowed the 27-year-old model again, outfitting it in two makeovers ready for the green. "Voltage Purple" and "Black/Metallic Silver" further expand the Air Max model's time as a spike-less golf shoe. All the aesthetics that've made McDowell's design a street-classic appear on the performance update, although the darker of the two pairs opts for a leather base instead of mesh. "Total Orange"-colored branding lands on the profiles and tongues, further nodding to Nike heritage.

Underfoot, the road-informed tread is retooled to provide reliable grip on the golf course. Tuned Air units reprise their roles, delivering responsive cushioning.
