Nike Air Max 95 – Black – Volt – White | Available

The old addage “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it,” clearly applies to ongoing releases of beloved classic sneaker designs, and also in the case of an impeccable palette or blocking pattern. You’ve got a bunch of both with the new Nike Air Max 95 pictured above, a model that perhaps more than any other in history is singularly associated with one particular range of shades. And while this new drop doesn’t go for the OG ‘grey-dient’, they do manage to get a familiar neon punch on the tongue, laces and Air bubbles of this otherwise black ensemble. This is a pattern we saw on last month’s Obsidian and Action Red release, the recent WMNS joints in black and Siren Red, and one more coming up in March dipped in Stealth with Neptune Blue hits. With so much to choose from, will this pair be the one you choose to buy? If so, cop a pair now from Nikestore or footsoldier on eBay.

Nike Air Max 95 WMNS – Black – Siren Red

Brendan Dunne — Sat, 04 Feb 2012 22:00:02 +0000

If you’ve been keeping in touch with the flow of Nike Air Max 95′s as of late, this set up should be familiar. We’ve seen the blocking in both a volt and action red pair, and this WMNS release continues to kick things up with the flashy accent colors. The pair grabs the so-called siren red, and we see the burning shade cover the lining and drip down the lace placket, showing up on the side swoosh and a bit on bottom as well to tie things together. Are these just flashy enough for your tastes or a bit too blacked out for comfort? Let us know in the comments, and if you like what you see then you can pick them up at spots like Oneness.

Nike Air Max 95 – Stealth – Neptune Blue

On the surface this is just another Nike Air Max 95 right? Well you could look at it that way, but once you put it in some context the sneaker actually carries a few clues about some recent design trends coming from Beaverton. First there’s the move towards these more solidly blocked colorways on this particular bubble bottomed shoe, which we’ve seen in a bevy of different combos over recent months. Then there’s the accent color of choice: neptune blue, a tone that has been trickling into the conscious of sneakerheads since it popped up on the Nike LeBron 9 ‘China’. Put those two elements together and you’ve got a spring release that puts a particularly fresh spin on the stealthy look. These will be hitting the US in March, but we’ve spotted some pairs up at Caliroots for you now if you just can’t wait, so hit them up after you peep the pictures after the jump.

Nike Air Max 95 – Black – Volt | Available

The original Black/Grey/Volt colorway of the Nike Air Max 95 has been copied over to countless other Nike models over the last seventeen years, but like how a suit is tailored to one distinct person, so does Black/Grey/Volt fit perfectly for the Air Max 95. Even when the colorway is slightly reshuffled, it still looks amazing, and this Black/Volt colorway which has been previewed on Sneaker News before has garnered some positive reaction (and rightfully so). Sneaker News dropped the release date for these (detailed below), but you can get them right now a month in advance over at UK’s JDSports after you check out the new gallery below.

Complex’s 25 Best Nike Air Max Sneakers Of All-Time

John K. — Fri, 13 Jan 2012 19:00:16 +0000

The original tag line for the debut of the Nike Air Max 1 was “Nike Air is not shoe”. Twenty-five years later, that notion holds true, because Air Max – aside from its performance value – has driven the sneaker game into collector madness with its classics taking the spotlight front and center. Many will confess to owning multiple pairs of Air Max 1s, 90s, and 95s, but let’s not forget that Air Max went beyond the confines or running and into training and basketball, creating its own legacy within each individual sport. Of course, there were the cult-classics along the way, like the nylon-uppered Air Max Deluxe and the ‘Spidermans’ in the Air Max 120 in the running sector, the Speed Turf Max, which will make a triumphant return later this year, and the LeBron 9, which continues to popularize Air Max in the sport of basketball that had been previously dominated by Zoom. Complex just put together a list of the 25 best Air Maxes of all-time, so see if you can guess which came up at number 1!

Nike Air Max 95 – Stealth – Neptune Blue | Release Date

John K. — Thu, 12 Jan 2012 23:00:48 +0000

The tonal-upper paired with a secondary colorway on the outsole and Max Air unit ain’t nuthin’ new for the Nike Air Max 95, as we’ve seen a bunch of similarly blocked colorways from the early ’00s. The ‘Michigan’ joints, the WMNS Grey/Hot Pink releases, and a slew of other two-toned ninety-fives have gained a ‘classic’ status over the years, so perhaps this March 2012 colorway will see the same fate? Dropping at Nike Sportswear retailers on March 10th is this Stealth/Neptune Blue colorway, previewed back in July of 2011. It followed the January release of the Obsidian/Action Red and the February release of the Black/Volt, finishing up a trio of must-haves for the Spring 2012 season. More angles after the jump – take a peek and let us know what you think.

There’s no doubt that the Nike Air Max 95 look most near and dear to the hearts of sneakerheads is the ‘greydient’ one of the OG batch, but that doesn’t mean you should be turning a blind eye to everything else. This exciting new black/volt colorway achieves a similar level of pop thanks to the high-energy accents that jump out from the black background of the sneaker. We first gave you a look at what 2012 has in store for the Air Max 95 back in July, and we’re just now getting word of when this model from the bunch will be dropping stateside. Follow us after the jump for some extra angles and make sure you find some space in your budget for this February release.
