Nike Sportswear will be showcasing its newest creations in preparation for Air Max Day 2024. Whether it's the latest Air Max Plus Drift or the more current Air Max Dn, Nike keeps putting out new models. The latest Air Max Plus Drift colorway, "Light Smoke Grey," is now at the front and center.

The pair features a combination of White, Light Armory Blue, Sail, and Light Smoke Grey shades. A gradient reminiscent of the trendy "Sunset" color gives its airy mesh basis a modern vibe. The synthetic cage reinforcements as well as heels in Light Smoke Grey provide further strength.

The wearer can find additional Grey on the midsole, which proudly displays the apparent Air Max components that provide impressive padding. Black tongue accents and white laces set off by an ice semi-translucent outsole complete the shoe.
