No-Sew and Hyperfuse-constructed 360-cushioned updates are on the way this summer, but that doesn’t mean the Nike Air Max 95 remain a staple in its original form. This new release takes the grey whose balancing properties the Ninety-Fives showed off so perfectly in their OG form, and applies it to an entirely suede upper along with Neptune Blue accents. The Stealth build provides that same harmonizing effect to your entire outfit, making for a great all-around spring shoe and one that might be considered something like ‘the new white’. Check them out up close after the jump, then head out to Nike Sportswear dealers like Social Status or grab yours today on eBay.

Without a single colorway previewed in 2012, you might have forgotten that Nike Sportswear has a new version of their HS senior-aged classic runner. The AM95 graduates to a sleeker construction on the Nike Air Max 95 No-Sew, a model whose signature upper tiers are pressure welded rather than the traditonal stitching approach. The thing this model does retain that’s absolutely foundational is the classic OG Neon colorway, a gradient from white to black through three shades of grey plus the vibrant yellow accents that were so impactful in the mid-90s that this palette remains one of the most popular. Check out how it looks without any stitches and sew up your pair with a pre-order on this April release from End.

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.

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.

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.

If you check back in our archives over the last couple of months, you’ll notice a particular aversion towards the OG grey-dient look for the Nike Air Max 95. In the absence of that iconic set up there have been a gang of other colorways vying for your attention, some of them putting a darker twist on the look, and some opting for a more solid blocking overall. The anthracite and red version shown here flips the grey-dient set up on its head, letting the sneaker get darker from the ground up. Follow us after the jump for a full look at this vamp-colorway, which is available exclusively through JD Sports out in the UK, long time purveyor of Air Max goodies.

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.

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.
