Momentum around Nike’s Tuned Air series keeps growing, and a fresh colorway is already lining up for the warmer season. Recently revealed official images highlight the Nike Air Max Plus VII “Blue Crystal”, bringing a bright mix of white and blue that feels right at home for summer.
Simple white breathable mesh makes up the base upper, ensuring the design stays light and letting its layered appearance really pop. Overlaying the mesh is a skin of Blue Crystal raised rubber dots that cascade across the shoe from toe to heel. Playing around with different shapes and sizes of these rubber dots keeps the upper moving and gives the sneaker a sleek futuristic vibe without cramming the layout.
Blue Crystal glossy mudguard hugs the toe and wraps down the bottom portion of the upper. Sleek and smooth, it contrasts the mesh nicely. In contrast to the Blue Crystal accents, a tiny metallic Version black Swoosh rests on the midfoot. Small and simple, it brings brand recognition to the sneaker without stealing the show. Metallic Silver Thermoplastic polyurethane support straps adorn the heel and flow into the molded midsole.
Classic Tuned Air cues remain part of the build. The familiar Tn Air badge appears on the tongue, heel, and outsole, while the midsole houses multiple visible Air units for cushioning. Blue-tinted Air windows tie the color scheme together, and a black rubber outsole completes the look underneath.
The Nike Air Max Plus VII “Blue Crystal” is expected to release Summer 2026 via Nike.com and select retailers for $190.
