Nike Air Max TL 2.5 "Metallic Silver" HM8818-001

Nike brings back the Air Max TL 2.5 with a bold, metallic twist. Originally part of the mid-2000s “Total Air” line, this retro runner arrives in a sleek “Metallic Silver” colourway that fuses archival design with a futuristic finish. The pair leans into the techwear aesthetic while staying true to its performance roots.

The upper combines breathable grey mesh with glossy synthetic overlays, creating a reflective chrome effect across the wavy frame. Metallic silver Swooshes hit the side panels, with matching branding on the tongue, heel, vamp, and eyestay for a consistent finish. Perforations sit along the medial side and heel, adding airflow where it matters most.

Nike loads the midsole with full-length Max Air cushioning, giving each step soft landings and a responsive bounce. Underneath, the waffle-patterned rubber outsole grips well across a range of surfaces—whether you’re walking through the city or out for a casual run.

This isn’t just a throwback—it’s a loud, confident re-entry for the TL 2.5. The chrome finish gives the shoe its edge, while the layered construction and cushioning keep it grounded in comfort. Expect this to be one of the standout reissues in Nike’s Air Max rotation this year.
