The Nike Air VaporMax Plus Black Metallic Gold Anthracite takes the beach-themed design of the Air Max Plus, fuses it with VaporMax Air midsole technology, and dresses it in a stealthy colorway that pops with hits of brightness.
The Black Metallic Gold Anthracite iteration of the Nike Air VaporMax Plus features an upper that starts with a base of breathable black synthetic textile. This padded upper is encased in a black synthetic cage that provides foot support as well as a wavy aesthetic. The laces, tongue, sock liner, and insole are also black, while the heel and insole sport a yellow and white VM branding patch. Hits of gold also relieve the black in the Nike Swoosh on the collar, a pull tab on the heel, and a patch on the tongue.
The most impressive aspect of this high-octane running shoe is the sole unit, which features VaporMax Air units directly under the upper for enhanced cushioning and comfort. Thick lugs on the rubber outsole provide impact absorption, energy return, and traction. The Nike Air VaporMax Plus Black Metallic Gold Anthracite was released on November 10, 2018, for $190 retail.
