Nike's Air Max TL 2.5 Goes for (Metallic) Gold

Nike Sportswear's retro run of the Air Max TL 2.5 continues with a "Metallic Gold/Black" style.

Rooted in yesteryear's aesthetics and performance technology, the silhouette has resurged in popularity thanks to an industry-wide shift to mesh running models from the 2000s. The latest take opts for a shimmering metallic finish across the bulk of its upper, with synthetic overlays, mudguards, and profile swooshes donning copper-reminiscent tones. The full-length Air Max unit underfoot indulges in the titular golden hue as well, while its surrounding foam and tread setup keep things simple in pitch "Black."

Enjoy official photos of the eye-catching Air Max TL 2.5 ahead. Pairs should release via Nike.com and a wide selection of retailers by December for $190.
