Might 2026 be the year Syracuse returns to the Big Dance? It’s far too early to say, but optimism is building around the Orange, led by Kiyan Anthony, as they look to snap a four-year streak without a trip to March Madness. If you’re among the hopeful, this upcoming Nike Air Max Plus might be right up your alley.
Dressed in Syracuse colors, the sneaker features a navy blue mesh base, silver TPU overlays, and bright orange accents on the Swooshes, Air units, and midfoot plate within the midsole. The Tuned Air classic turned mainstream staple may have taken a back seat in 2025 to silhouettes like the Air Max 95 and newer entries such as the DN8, but much like Syracuse itself, its core fanbase always remains loyal.
The “Syracuse” Air Max Plus is already available overseas at atmos and is expected to land stateside during the Spring 2026 shopping window. Stay tuned for further updates.
