Step into the history books. Paying homage to Frank Rudy, the man who created the coveted cornerstone of cushioning—Air—the Nike Air Max Plus SE celebrates his legacy with fun details. From the patent number proudly stamped on the Air unit to the translucent cage to the Airy woven upper, its striking visuals deliver a lesson in comfort. Celebrate Frank Rudy's Air: "Patent NO. 4,183,156" is stamped on the Air unit, hangtag mimics his "California Nike Air" license plate and an info card talks about the invention. Printed sockliner with Air schematics adds to the fun. Bringing beach life to the city, the prominent arch draws inspiration from a whale's tail and adds structure while the iconic wavy fingers nod to palm trees and ocean waves. Originally designed for performance running, Nike Air units provide lightweight cushioning that lasts. Synthetic upper with airy mesh adds lightweight comfort and durability. Full-length rubber outsole adds traction and durability to your journey.
