The Nike Air Max Foamdome “Eggplant” returns November 5, 2026. IX7255-506. $265. The Foamdome combines a Foamposite-style molded shell with a heavier boot construction, and the Eggplant colorway is the one Foamposite fans have been waiting for.

The Foamdome is a cold-weather shoe. It borrows the Foamposite aesthetic but applies it to a bulkier, boot-like shape with visible Air Max cushioning underfoot. The result is something that looks like it belongs on a mountain trail, not a basketball court.

The Eggplant finish is the star. Electro Purple covers the molded shell, shifting between purple, black, and sometimes green depending on how light hits it. Black leather wraps the eyestay, toe, and collar. Black laces keep everything dark up top.

Purple has been tied to Foamposite for years. The Air Foamposite One “Eggplant” is one of the most iconic Foamposite colorways ever. The Foamdome version takes that color and puts it on a much bulkier shape, giving it a darker and more rugged feel.

Air Max Foamdome Eggplant detail

The Foamdome last released in 2016. Ten years later, it returns at $265, which positions it as a premium Nike Sportswear product. The Foamdome is not for everyone. It is big, heavy, and unapologetic. That is the point.
