The Nike Air Max Waffle Racer SP Channels the OG "Voltage Purple"

The Nike Air Max Waffle Racer SP is making waves this holiday season, and the brand is expediting production for 2025 due to its surprising popularity. The latest colorway of this hybrid silhouette channels the original "Voltage Purple" look.


The rich purple shade appears on the nylon upper, while a bright red hits the Swoosh logo and Air unit at the heel. A black suede toe-guard, heel, and lace collar complete the 1999-esque aesthetic.


This is the third known colorway of the Air Max Waffle Racer SP, and Nike is expected to release several more next spring. The "Voltage Purple" version is set to drop on December 3, 2024, on SNKRS and select Nike retailers for $140.



The Air Max Waffle Racer has been a divisive model among Nike purists, but its bold and daring design has clearly struck a chord with consumers. The Frankenstein-esque silhouette blends elements of the Air Max and Waffle Racer, creating a unique and eye-catching sneaker.


With more colorways on the horizon, the Air Max Waffle Racer SP is poised to continue its momentum in the coming year. Sneakerheads would be wise to keep an eye out for this hybrid model as it continues to evolve and surprise.
