Nike Air Max Plus VII Premium "Fire Red" drops in 2026

Nike Sportswear is releasing the Nike Air Max Plus VII Premium "Fire Red" in Summer 2026, featuring a heat-map upper pattern with layered red-to-black transitions.

Nike has recently published official images of the Air Max Plus VII Premium in the "Fire Red" makeup, confirming the pair is part of the upcoming Summer 2026 lineup. The image set positions this as a higher-energy TN colorway with aggressive gradient blocking and a bold tooling contrast.

The pair carries style code IO9556-600 and arrives in a "Fire Red / Black / Hyper Crimson / White / Picante Red / Team Red" colorway with a reported retail price of $200. Across the upper, the pattern reads like a flame-wave graphic, shifting from bright fire red into deeper crimson and team red zones before fading into black around the collar and mudguard line. The TPU cage bars amplify that movement by cutting through the gradients in darker contrast, while white hits on the midsole and metallic accents around the Air windows sharpen the overall palette and keep the warmer tones visually dominant.
