The Nike Air Max Plus ‘Sunset’ is one of the most legendary colourways in the Air Max Plus lineup. Featuring a striking gradient upper inspired by the colours of a sunset, this sneaker blends bold design with the signature Tuned Air comfort that made the model famous worldwide.
Available now at Lloyds Jones Footwear, the Sunset edition is perfect for sneaker collectors and streetwear fans who want a truly iconic Nike trainer.
The Air Max Plus was originally designed by Sean McDowell and first released in 1998. The design was inspired by the palm trees and sunsets of Florida beaches, which influenced the shoe’s wavy TPU cage and vibrant gradient colour scheme.

Sunset gradient mesh upper blending yellow, orange, and red tones
Black TPU cage overlays inspired by palm trees swaying in the wind
Signature “TN” branding on the heel and outsole
Classic Nike Swoosh logo on the side panels
Durable rubber outsole for traction and stability
The bold gradient effect gives the sneaker a vibrant look that instantly stands out.
