The Nike Air Max Plus OG Hyper Blue is a reissue of one of the most iconic designs from the late '90s—a sneaker designed by Sean McDowell in 1998. The model debuted on January 20, 2025 , and pays homage to the original colorway, which was included in the first wave of releases and instantly gained streetwear icon status. The blue gradients (from Sky Blue to Hyper Blue) and distinctive tropical-inspired overlays evoke Florida landscapes—a DNA that the Air Max Plus has carried from the beginning. If you collect iconic sneakers with a running history and streetwear pedigree, this pair is perfect. At Aplug, you'll find tried-and-true pairs of limited-edition sneakers, with each model undergoing authentication.

The upper is constructed from mesh in a striking gradient color transition—from light blue at the toe to a deep Hyper Blue at the heel. This backdrop is set against the distinctive black TPU overlays that run from the forefoot, through the midfoot, and up to the heel, creating a veined effect inspired by palm trees. A gold Swoosh on the lateral side (in a yellow shade) and 3M reflective accents add dynamics and visibility in the dark. A textured leather mudguard protects the lateral sides, while a black tongue with a tonal blue trim maintains the color consistency. The midsole features visible Tuned Air units in the forefoot and rear, surrounded by foam—between them is a blue TPU piece that reinforces the arch. A black rubber outsole with a tread pattern provides traction on urban surfaces.

The Nike Air Max Plus Hyper Blue works well as an everyday lifestyle sneaker—perfect for strolls, all-day wear around town, or as a bold visual accent in outfits. It pairs naturally with oversized sweatshirts, loose jeans, or cargo pants in neural shades (black, ecru, beige), where the blue gradients do the color work. You can also play on the contrast with a light top—a boxy white T-shirt or an oversized cream sweatshirt enhance the retro-modern effect. Due to the mesh upper, avoid prolonged exposure to rain and mud—it's worth protecting the upper with a mesh waterproofing agent, and regularly cleaning the visible air units and rubber tread to maintain the shine of the timeless design.

What makes the Nike Air Max Plus OG Hyper Blue special?

• Tuned Air System - segmented, visible air cushions provide selective shock absorption and targeted support (more responsive under the heel and forefoot), a balance between softness and stability.
• Mesh Upper - Provides airflow and a lightweight construction, ideal for all-day wear in urban environments; requires regular cleaning and moisture management.
• TPU overlays with a distinctive pattern – rigid, thermoformed overlays provide structural support, shaping the shoe's silhouette and referencing the original design; the black "veins" are a direct reference to McDowell's design.
• Transparent TPU elements at the toe and a blue mid-shank enhance the torsion and durability of the sole, adding a modern, technical character.
• Textured leather mudguard – increases abrasion resistance and protects the side panels while enhancing the premium feel of the entire build.
• Rubber sole with waffle tread - guarantees traction on urban surfaces, easy to clean and durable even with heavy wear.
• 3M reflective accents – visible on selected details, improve visibility in low-light conditions, functional aesthetic for urban routes.
• A gradient mesh color transition from Sky Blue to Hyper Blue, a direct reference to the tropical inspirations and Florida landscapes of the original design brief.

How to choose the size of Nike Air Max Plus OG Hyper Blue?

The Nike Air Max Plus typically fits True to Size (TTS) —those with standard or narrow feet should choose their regular size. However, the shoe is slightly narrower in the forefoot due to the built-in TPU overlays and stiffened mudguard. If you have a wider foot or prefer a looser fit, consider upping the size (+0.5) to avoid pressure around the forefoot. The laces allow for some adjustment, but the tight upper can quickly wear out. If you're unsure between sizes, choose the larger size and check for returns or exchanges.
