For Spring 2026, the Nike Air Max Plus “Black Honey” shifts focus from loud gradients to texture-driven storytelling. The result feels intentional rather than experimental.
A light yellow hexagon pattern replaces the standard mesh, changing how the upper reads without altering the silhouette. Darker yellow details anchor the Swoosh, midfoot shank, and Air units below. A gold bee lands on the tongue and heel lining, quietly explaining the concept without spelling it out.
The Air Max Plus has never been one to shy away from making some noise and, upon its late-90s introduction, it certainly didn’t. This colorway, however, goes for a more mellow approach – it’s all about the details.
The Nike Air Max Plus “Black Honey” launches Spring 2026 for $190 at Nike.com and select retailers.
