Nike Sportswear is releasing the Nike Air Max Plus "Picante Red & Black" in Summer 2026, pairing aggressive gradient color transitions with classic TN detailing.
Nike has recently published official images of the Nike Air Max Plus in the "Picante Red & Black" makeup, confirming the pair is part of the upcoming Summer 2026 lineup. The upper uses a red-to-black gradient fade through the cage and mesh zones, while yellow TN hits appear on the heel badge, outsole branding, and logo elements.
The pair is currently expected to release for $190 under style code DM0032-600 in a "Picante Red / Black / Picante Red" colorway. Based on the official image set, Nike keeps the iconic Air Max Plus wave structure and builds depth through the tonal fade from brighter red into black across the upper. The yellow TN accents punctuate key touchpoints, especially around the heel and outsole, giving the colorway stronger contrast against the darker base. A specific release date has not been announced yet, but the drop is currently expected during Summer 2026.
