HOMECOMING x Nike TN Air Max Plus African Sunrise

Few silhouettes carry cultural weight quite like the Air Max Plus, and for HOMECOMING’s ninth edition, it becomes the canvas for a landmark moment. Designed by Grace Ladoja MBE — the first African woman to ever create a Nike sneaker — this collaboration taps into the deep-rooted connection between Air Max culture and identity across African and diasporic communities.

Dressed in a vivid “African Sunrise” palette, this TN channels the energy of Lagos at daybreak. Fiery orange gradients wash over the signature wavy upper, echoing the city’s early morning glow, while classic Tuned Air cushioning keeps the silhouette grounded in performance heritage. Each pair comes loaded with six detachable charms, including a Nigerian map, cowrie shell, eagle, and gold Africa emblem — layered symbols of exchange, spirituality, and cultural pride that elevate the design beyond footwear.

More than just a colourway, this release marks a full-circle moment for Ladoja and a powerful step forward for representation in design. As HOMECOMING continues to bridge global and African creativity, the “Orange” TN stands as a statement of progress, identity, and the next generation shaping the culture. Secure your pair and be part of the movement.
