Nike’s vintage Air Tuned Max sneaker returned earlier this year, marking the silhouette’s first retro release in over two decades. Now, more colorways are beginning to surface, like this triple black rendition, coming soon.

When the Nike Air Tuned Max was first introduced in 1999, it was the pinnacle of the brand’s various Air technologies combined with other essential running properties into one. The mixed material construction, featuring mesh, synthetic leathers, and plastic TPU caging, made for one of the most comforting yet high-performing running shoes of the era, and has since become a legend amongst Nike heads not only for these traits, but for its elusiveness over the past 22 years, hiding in the brand’s immense archives. Now, the Tuned Max is back, debuting earlier this year in its original color scheme, before settling into a handful of new colorways that are on the horizon. Today, we have an early look at a “Triple Black” color scheme, reworking the entire silhouette in a inky tone, from the mesh underlay to patent leather mudguards.
