The Nike Air VaporMax Plus Appears in "Thunder Blue"

After a relatively quiet stretch, the Nike Air VaporMax Plus is set to return with a fresh new look this fall. The latest colorway, dubbed “Thunder Blue,” brings a moody monochrome approach to the Air Max hybrid.

Staying true to its roots, this upcoming pair features the model’s recognizable neoprene upper, drenched in a deep navy finish. Matching molded TPU overlays, laces, and pull tabs maintain the tonal consistency, while subtle Swoosh branding and a glossy full-length VaporMax sole unit round out the design.

The combination of modern cushioning and the Air Max Plus-inspired cage makes the VaporMax Plus a go-to for fans of technical and futuristic aesthetics. And with this understated “Thunder Blue” edition, it’s just as suitable for cooler-weather rotations as it is for pushing streetwear fits forward.

Look for the Nike Air VaporMax Plus “Thunder Blue” to release in Fall 2025 at select retailers and Nike.com.
