The Nike Air VaporMax Plus Work Blue is a unique colorway of the VaporMax Plus, a hybrid sneaker that combines the cushioning technology of the VaporMax with an Air Max Plus upper. The shoes showcase an interesting color palette that combines a light blue hue with black and white. The light blue hue covers the upper while the midsole is fully white and the outsole black with a gradient effect that transitions to a transparent hue. The upper is made from a combination of materials including lightweight mesh and synthetic overlays, featuring a TPU cage that wraps around the midfoot for better stability and support. The sole unit consists of individual air pods strategically placed on the underfoot to deliver targeted cushioning. Initially released for retail on 4th August 2018 at a price of $190, the standout feature of the Nike Air VaporMax Plus Work Blue is the durable TPU cage. The VaporMax Plus silhouette, revered for its distinctive visuals and pioneering Tuned Air technology since its debut in 1998, has been upgraded with a compression-molded upper encased by a TPU exoskeleton, moving away from traditional injected ribbing. Iconic branding is displayed on the counters and heel while the VaporMax sole fades from dark blue to clear, providing comfortable cushioning and support underfoot.
