It was just about six weeks ago that Nike Sportswear released a Nike Air Max+ 95 (360) that offered a glimpse at what this new silhouette can do with the OG ‘Neon’ colorway. We marveled at how the Big Bubble Air Max 95 offered contrasting gradients courtesy of its Hyperfuse construction, and by that measure, this new pair is an even better representation of that ‘nu-Neon’ vibe. These New AM95BBs apply a ‘reverse’ gradient to their base layer, and though we’ve seen that on several Ninety Fives over the years, none of those offered the kind of visual intensity you get from Volt on the laces, eyelets, ‘ribs’ and Max Air cushion. Check them out up close after the jump, let us know how they compare to the aforementioned style and grab yours at NSW stores like Social Status.

Chili is the particular shade of red most commonly associated with the legendary Air Max 95, but just last summer, Nike Sportswear issued a Solar Red-accented edition that offered its own twist on that familiar OG grey-dient style. Add a few more degrees of deviation and you end up with something like the model pictured above: the Nike Air Max+ (95) 360. This new round of pictures makes the Big Bubbled 95‘s upper tiers look even more distinct than in earlier previews, which results in a stratified look that implies the process by which it was constructed. Click through to get a closer view and keep July 1st marked on your calendar as Nike will drop these babies in just a few short weekends. Photos: mita sneakers

Sneaker News just showed you how the original Air Max 360 runner had been revamped with the most cutting-edge cushion and a luxurious upper build; how might that design we showed off in black and red look in a traditional summertime white/silver build?

June 9th is quietly shaping up to be the biggest sneaker release date in a good while; could it creep up on us and run away with the crown? We’ll most certainly be watching to see if the Nike Air Yeezy 2 drops this time, and on-time releases like the Air Jordan IV ‘Military Blue’, the latest ‘Poison Dart Frog’ Zoom Kobe 7 and the Nike Sportswear trainer pictured above mean there’s something for everyone coming up next weekend. This Nike Air Max Griffey Fury pairs Metallic Silver with New Green and black accents, a kind of alternate Mariners look that you might pair with some dark denim to complete the color scheme. Click through to get a better idea of how that might look and grab yours a bit early from 95soleman on eBay.

Here’s the latest example of why, even if you’re a fan of the original, you’ve got to at least listen to a hybrid that can double up the signature gradients while updating the construction and blowing out the airbag. The Nike Air Max+ (95) 360 has also been labeled ‘BB’ for its ‘big bubble’, the full-length uncaged Max Air cushion. That sole is every bit the expression of modern performance as the understated greyscale Hyperfuse blend that’s more visually impactful than the average neon or otherwise attention grabbing colorways. See what we mean on the other side, then grab yours at Nike Sportswear dealers like Sneaker Bistro.

The Nike Air Max+ (95) 360 has proven to be one of the year’s pleasant surprises, its reprisal of Sergio Lozano’s impeccable masterpiece bringing enough novelty to the table that even many purists have given these their nod of approval. This new black BB doubles up on gradients: darker-than-OG greys on the muscle fibers and Sport Red on the ribs, also sublimating itself into the black midsole. Add in the familiar 3M reflective heel stripe and signature branding and these are hard to pass up. Have another look at them in additional images after the jump, then head to Sneaker Bistro today as they have them a bit in advance of the June 7th release date.

Among the reasons the Air Max+ 2009 is considered a modern classic is its pioneering use of a totally uncaged full-length Max Air unit. This innovation can be seen as the culmination of decades of work, starting with Frank Ruby’s original encapsulated Air bubbles, Tinker’s Air Max 1 ‘mistake’ and another leap represented by the silhouette pictured above. 2006′s Air Max 360 (I) was the first to give us Max Air from heel to toe in just a single airbag, so it’s particularly interesting to see that model’s upper paired with the advanced cushion for which it was a stepping stone. The Nike Air Max 2006 Leather applies a luxurious build of this streaky design and places it atop a Sport Red sole for that impeccable ‘bred’ mix that’ll have these building up ‘sleeper hit’ status now that they’re available at Nike Sportswear dealers like Titolo.
