Nike Sportswear is re-releasing the iconic Nike Air Max Plus "Eclair / Lightening" during the Summer of 2025, a highly anticipated colorway among collectors.
UPDATE 18/04/2025: Nike released official images today of the new Nike Air Max Plus "Eclair / Lightening". For now, the brand has not yet announced an exact release date.

UPDATE 08/01/2025: The first images of the new Nike Air Max Plus "Eclair" have been published by JD Sports. The new model will be available on Nike.com and at select Nike partner stores starting during the Summer of 2025. For now, the brand has not yet announced an official release date.
The "Eclair" color scheme was originally released in 2000, produced exclusively in women's sizes. Nike is celebrating 25 years since that moment in 2025, launching this limited edition colorway once again. The new version uses the "Midnight Navy / Midnight Navy / Salsa Red / White / Metallic Silver / Clear" color scheme. This is relatively different from the one used on the original version – "Midnight Navy / White / Laquer". The model is also releasing in a men's size run this time, from US 6 to 15. The official release date has not been announced yet. Even so, we expect the model to start releasing from May 2025.
