Since being unveiled on Air Max Day in 2017, the Nike Air VaporMax Plus has been a firm favourite on our radar. The hybrid shoe which fuses the Air Max Plus (known to most as the TN) with the VaporMax sole has seen a number of colourway variations and interpretations.

This time around, the VaporMax has been dressed in 'Regency Purple' and is set for an upcoming release. The silhouette features a purple neoprene sock-like upper, which hugs the foot, while an aqua blue TPU cage brings added support  – and style – midfoot.

There's an iridescent abstract shape at the arch, sitting just above the fully exposed VaporMax sole unit, which comes in a gradient colour transitioning from pink to blue.

The gradient of the Air sole gives us warm exotic sunset vibes, as if the sky is turning from day to night. This feels quite different to the usual colourways for the VaporMax Plus – such as the bright rainbow colours of the 'Be True' colourway or the cool tones of the VaporMax Plus Grey with mint green.

What do you think about the hybrid shoe that's taking the sneaker game by storm? Are you a fan of the fusion shoe, or do you prefer a classic? Drop a comment below.

These don't have a firm release date yet, but they should become available sometime in February. If you're loving the Nike Air VaporMax Plus in Regency Purple as much as us, keep it locked to The Sole Supplier for their release date as well as the latest updates and the latest trainer news!
