The history of the Tn officially begins in 1998. At that time, the Swoosh brand was enjoying a string of successes. The silhouette arrived with a bang just one year after the cult Air Max 97 , and this, to better eclipse the one that was supposed to replace it: the Air Max 98. A feat signed Sean McDowell to whom we also owe the Flyknit technology. A feat that owes nothing to chance since the illustrious designer of the equipment manufacturer had this project in mind even before joining Nike 's workforce.
The idea for the Air Max Plus actually germinated in Sean McDowell's mind a few years earlier. It was during a vacation in Florida, lulled by the intoxicating rhythm of palm trees dancing under a sunset on the seafront, that this outstanding creative imagined the beginnings of the design of the Tn. A design that has become iconic thanks in part to its superimposed TPU undulations inspired by these famous palm trees. The beauty also owes its salvation to its OG colors with both maritime and exotic overtones, as well as its evolved version of the Nike Air cushioning system. Named Tuned Air , hence the nickname Tn that has stuck to the model since its birth, this technology was initially developed for purely sporting purposes, to reduce the phenomenon of supination often felt by runners.
The Nike Tn is therefore a running shoe in its own right. This is evidenced by its incredible comfort accentuated by a sensational lightness, resulting from its mesh upper , and its unfailing stability . However, it is on the street that it forged its popularity , helped by the Foot Locker brand where it was sold exclusively at its beginnings, and especially by young people from the suburbs. It has established itself as one of the key pieces of their dress code, alongside other essentials of the city uniform such as the Lacoste tracksuit and the shoulder bag, of course. It has thus brilliantly cultivated its naturally aggressive style of which the Nike Tn Requin remains the most worthy representative.
The Tn is otherwise appreciated for its inimitable OG colors that Nike regularly reissues. Among these colors that you can buy on Limited Resell is of course the Requin, recognizable among all thanks to its Hyper Blue finish. Its return was also expected this year. In any case, it is part of these colorful variations which, with the Tn Voltage Purple recently promoted by Kylian Mbappé and the Sunset edition, contributed to the emergence of the gradient style, or degraded, if you prefer. A legendary style of streetwear culture as much as the silhouette itself.
As a classic, the Tn regularly passes through the hands of talented players who work to restore its reputation in the context of generally effective collaborations. Supreme was one of the first streetwear fashion labels to revisit it, just four years ago. The partnership between Nike and the New York skate shop proved so prolific that the two players did it again at the beginning of the year, this time on the Air Max Dn. As for the Air Max Plus, it was then remodeled by other no less prestigious labels. Let us mention for example A-COLD-WALL and One Block Down. The latter were able to bring it into a luxurious dimension that in no way altered its legendary comfort or its natural aggressiveness. The famous Air Max thus manages to broaden its spectrum.
Many of you want to buy Tn online , especially to get your hands on these collaborations and other versions of the model which are logically the most popular, and unfortunately the most counterfeited. Rest assured, there are simple ways to check that a pair of Tn is legit, or authentic. Know that the Air Max Plus sports a distinctive logo with the inverted Nike comma that comes out of its frame. This one also occupies a significant space at the top of the tongue of the laces, and it is framed by stitching on the heel. Also, the finish of the Tn systematically, or almost, includes undulations and reflective details in 3M. Finally, the overall quality should alert you, even if the manufacturer's copies are not themselves perfect.
By ordering your new pair on the Limited Resell website, you will obviously not have to worry about this authenticity problem. Our experts scrutinize all the products sold on the store, taking care to examine all these criteria and much more. You can also trust us to offer you only the best of Tn, and more generally of Nike trainers . Now all you have to do is find what you are looking for.
The Nike Air Max Plus, or Tn, is available on Limited Resell in a multitude of versions and just as many color combinations among which you will definitely find a shoe that fits you. If you are not a fan of the gradient style characteristic of the essential Swoosh bubble sneaker, know that it is also available in much more sober finishes, based on white and black for example. On the menu of our collection you will find the Tn Triple Black and the Tn White, two very simple opus to wear in all circumstances. On the sizing side, note that the Tn is true to size. It is what is called in the jargon "true to size". However, if you like to be comfortable in your sneakers, you can opt for an additional half size.
