Nike's Air Max Dolce dress sneaker continues its sweet revival with the "Old Royal" release.

Funny enough, Dolce means "sweet" in Italian. And the Swoosh dress shoe has certainly lived up to its name through its tasty color options. Earlier this year, we met a bubblegum pink pair. Now, Nike's dropping a blueberry-flavored iteration.

The newest Air Max Dolce slips into a blueberry tux, essentially. The caged upper gets flooded in bold royal blue, while the soles are blacked out. Meanwhile, the visible Air cushioning in the heel brings more fruity flavor.

COMME des GARÇONS helped bring the model out of retirement through a Spring/Summer 2026 collaboration. Then, Nike revealed general-release color options for a full-on comeback.

Now, it's gearing up to bless the street with more Dolces. Fans can expect the return of an original 2002 colorway as well as these new "Old Royal" pairs (which have also been called "Electric Blue").

The blue Nike Air Max Dolce sneakers are slated to release on October 3 on Footdistrict's website for 160€, roughly $182.
