Nike Adds the Air Max Plus to Its “M. Frank Rudy” Collection

Beaverton mainstay Nike continues to pay homage to the legendary Marion Franklin Rudy aka Frank Rudy, the aerospace engineer who created Nike’s Air technology and forever changed the footwear business. Along with the Air Max 90 SE, the sportswear giant will also be dropping an Air Max Plus dedicated to Rudy.

The special edition Nike Air Max Plus “M. Frank Rudy” features a clean white mesh and leather base elevated with white leather mudguards and a translucent TPU cage.
