Football superstar Kylian Mbappé is solidifying his status as a global style icon with an upcoming Nike Air Max Plus VII collaboration. This partnership is a dynamic fusion of high-performance sport and French street culture, celebrating the Air Max Plus (or “Tn”), a silhouette that holds immense cultural reverence in France.
The collaboration is a logical evolution of their past work, which previously saw the release of the Mercurial TN football boot. The new Air Max Plus VII—a model originally from 2005—is being reimagined through Mbappé’s aesthetic. The design is expected to feature a vibrant, high-energy color scheme of plum eclipse and metallic gold tints, incorporating rich tones and accents that honor both his on-pitch speed and the Parisian urban look. Subtle personalized detailing will cement the shoe’s connection to the young athlete.
By choosing the Air Max Plus VII, Mbappé is making a statement about his roots and his long-standing relationship with Nike, Inc. The shoe’s aggressive, track-inspired DNA makes it a perfect canvas for a player who embodies speed and relentless forward motion. The Kylian Mbappé x Nike Air Max Plus VII is scheduled for release in Spring 2026.
