Nike Air Max Plus TN 'Aqua Blue Tiffany' (2024)
Description
The Nike Air Max Plus TN 'Aqua Blue Tiffany' (2024) brings back one of the most coveted colourways in the modern TN canon. First released in 2021 and returned by popular demand in December 2024, this edition drapes Sean McDowell's 1998 icon in the aqua-and-black pairing collectors affectionately call "Tiffany" — a knowing nod to one of sneaker culture's most storied colour combinations. Officially listed as Aqua Blue/Black under style code CV8838-400, it fuses the Air Max Plus' wave-inspired design language with a colour story that commands attention worldwide.
Overview
A gradient aqua mesh upper sets the tone, shifting through rich turquoise hues across the toe and quarter panels like light moving through water. Nike's signature moulded TPU cage arcs over the base in black, echoing the whale tails and palm fronds that inspired the original design, while a black mudguard and heel ground the palette. A translucent toe cap, crisp white laces and silver Swoosh branding sharpen the details up top. Underfoot, a black midsole houses Nike's Tuned Air cushioning — the pressurised system that made the Air Max Plus a performance landmark in 1998 — finished with a durable rubber outsole. Equally at home with denim, cargo trousers or technical fits, it is a statement shoe with genuine range.
Key Highlights
• The "Tiffany" Palette: The aqua-and-black colour blocking recalls one of sneaker history's most celebrated colour pairings, giving the TN instant grail status.
• Tuned Air Technology: The Air Max Plus debuted Nike's Tuned Air system in 1998, delivering stable, responsive cushioning that still holds up today.
• Signature TN Design: Gradient mesh, a wave-inspired TPU cage, translucent toe cap and silver Swooshes capture the silhouette's unmistakable attitude.
• Official Details: Style code CV8838-400 in the Aqua Blue/Black colourway, returned in December 2024 after its sought-after 2021 debut.

WHY OUR PRICES
The honest answer. The question we hear most: how can you sell the same sneakers for so much less? Here's the full, transparent breakdown — not a marketing line.
Where your money goes
At a boutique — $400
- The shoe itself ~15–25%
- Flagship store rent overhead
- Global advertising overhead
- Celebrity partnerships overhead
- Multi-layer distribution overhead
At Sole Dept
- The shoe itself what you pay for
- Boutique rent removed
- Advertising levy removed
- Celebrity premium removed
- Intermediary margins removed
Why we can do it
Production cost
The materials, construction and labour in a quality pair are a fraction of the boutique price. The rest is overhead and brand premium.
The retail mark-up
Brands add huge mark-ups to fund advertising, flagship stores and distribution across dozens of countries — you pay for all of it, whether you want to or not.
The Sole Dept difference
We source directly through UA (unauthorised authentic) supply lines. Lean operating costs, and every dollar saved is passed to you at checkout.
PACKAGING & WHATS INCLUDED
Every pair arrives complete. When your order lands, it looks and feels exactly the way it should — the full retail presentation, nothing stripped out. Here's precisely what comes in the box.
What's in every order
Original branded box
Each pair ships in its correct branded shoe box with the matching size label and SKU — the same box the silhouette is meant to come in, protected inside an outer shipping carton so it arrives crush-free.
Complete original packaging
Tissue paper, silica packs, the branded wrapping and inserts that shape the shoe in transit — all present, just as you'd expect from a boutique unboxing.
Dust bags
Where the model is issued with dust bags, they're included — ideal for storing your pair, keeping it clean between wears, and travelling with it.
Extras & spares
Spare laces, alternate lace colours, replacement parts and any accessories that ship with the original — included in the box exactly as intended.
Free gift with every order
On top of the full packaging, every Sole Dept order includes a complimentary free gift as a thank-you — a small extra tucked in the box, on us.
