The latest model to pay homage to a discontinued sneaker box is the Nike Air Vapormax Plus. Today’s take on the runner from Nike takes on an interesting appearance as the shoe starts off with a white neoprene construction on the upper that is then hit with Wolf Grey stripes to create and eye-catching look. Here the design is in reverse so the clear VaporMax unit appears in orange, while the textile upper features the aforementioned stripes. Completing the tribute is a white check at the ankle, a retro tongue tag, and a UPC code printed on the heel’s pull tab.
Get a closer look, and you can find this Nike Air VaporMax Plus at select Nike retailers now for $190.
Nike was founded in 1964 as Blue Ribbon Sports and initially operated as a distributor for the Japanese shoemaker Onitasuka Tiger (now known as Asics). It officially became Nike Inc. in 1971.The Nike swoosh was designed by Portland State University student Carolyn Davidson，The slogan “Just Do It” was inspired by serial killer Gary Gilmore, who said “let’s do it” just before he was executed by a firing squad in 1977.
