Nike Air Max Plus 'Before the Bite' (Pair)

A new pack consisting of two pairs of the Nike Air Max Plus will be releasing exclusively at Foot Locker in the near future. Inspired by sharks—and the sneaker's longtime "Le Requin" nickname in France—the pairs have been graced with "Before the Bite" and "After the Bite" nicknames. 

The "Before the Bite" pair is given a shark-like grey mesh upper with white teeth and red hits on the outsole to symbolize blood. The "After the Bite" opts for a full blood red upper with white teeth, darker shades of red on the midsole and branding, and a red outsole. Each pair sports leather hits on the tongue, heel, and mud guard, as well as matted-out heel Air Bags. A special "Tuned" branding hit resembling an open shark mouth is also emblazoned on each tongue.

Look for the Nike Air Max Plus "Before the Bite" and "After the Bite" to drop exclusively at Foot Locker stores in Europe and Asia on March 29. A U.S. and Canadian release date will take place on footlocker.com and at select Foot Locker locations on April 18. Each pair will retail at $170.
