Jordan Release Calendar

The World Cup is getting closer by the day, and every sneaker brand in sight is gearing up to help fans support their favorite national squads. After adidas linked up with countries like Jamaica, Spain, Japan, Mexico, and more, Nike is getting in on the action too, with previews of a Mexico-themed Air Max 95, a Shox R4 for Brazil, and now, a French Football Federation collab on the Air Max Plus.
The Nike Air Max Plus French Football Federation is a blue gradient colorway of the retro Air Max classic. Starting with blue mesh and a wavy blue skeleton on top of it, the two blues criss-cross in opposite gradients, with the mesh base starting with light blue above the midsole and evolving to dark blue at the lace panel. The rib bone structure switches it up with light blue up top and darker blue as it gets towards the midsole.
The side panel Swooshes and the midfoot outsole paneling are done in gold to match the French Football Federation rooster mascot logo surrounded by stars on the tongue. Air Max TN logo hits on the insole and heel complete the collab look.
The Nike Air Max Plus French Football Federation will be released March 23, 2026 through Nike and select retailers in-store and online. Available in unisex sizing, the retail price is set at $190. For all the latest Air Max soccer collab news and drop info, download the Sole Retriever App.
