Name: Nike Air Max TL 2.5 “Hyper Royal”
Colorway: Hyper Royal/Metallic Silver
SKU: HM8818-400
MSRP: $180 USD
Release Date: Summer 2025
Where to Buy: Nike

The resurgence of the Nike Air Max TL 2.5 was expected after COMME des GARÇONS HOMME PLUS dropped its three colorways, however, its impact continues to grow. Nike has been consistent in dropping in-line looks such as the recent “Michigan” composition, revisiting retro color schemes and introducing new takes on the shoe.

Adding to its roster, the Air Max TL 2.5 hast just surfaced in a new “Hyper Royal” rendition. This bold flavor of the sneaker sees its signature blue cover its mesh and synthetic build, coating the sneaker’s sleek linework. This colorway’s inclusion of “Metallic Silver” places the gray hue at its Max Air branding, several of the toe panels, as well as the “2006” callout at the lacing system, a nod to the year the shoe was originally introduced.

At the time of writing, Nike has not yet indicated when this “Hyper Royal” version of the Air Max TL 2.5 will be dropping. Stay tuned for updates regarding its launch procedure as we currently expect it to arrive this summer via Nike SNKRS and select retailers at a starting price of $180 USD.
