Nike Air Max Plus "Triple Black" AJ2029-001

The Nike Air Max Plus “Triple Black” AJ2029-001 pays a fitting tribute to its iconic 1998 predecessor by reintroducing the beloved ‘Tuned’ Air cushioning and dynamic design features. Depending on your colour preference, the shoe’s upper is crafted from a variety of materials, including leather, synthetic, or textiles, offering both versatility and style options. It’s equipped with a foam sole housing Tuned Air cushioning, ensuring exceptional comfort and support, complemented by a durable rubber outsole. The “Triple Black” variant, aptly named for its all-black aesthetic, maintains a timeless and sleek look. With the style code AJ2029-001, this shoe embodies the essence of the Air Max Plus collection, which holds a significant place in Nike’s history.

The origins of the Air Max Plus line can be traced back to Nike’s groundbreaking Air-Sole unit, initially introduced in their footwear in 1978. The turning point occurred in 1987 with the debut of the Nike Air Max 1, which featured visible air cushioning in the heel, allowing wearers not only to feel but also to see the comfort provided by Air-Sole technology. However, it was in 1998 that the Air Max Plus made its indelible mark by introducing an innovative cushioning system that fine-tuned Air-Sole units to specific areas of the foot, significantly enhancing stability and support for runners. Beyond its performance benefits, the shoe’s captivating sunset colour schemes and flowing design lines, inspired by windswept beach landscapes, cultivated a dedicated fan base that ultimately evolved into a cultural phenomenon, making it a true icon in the world of footwear.
