Jovani Hernandez Although NIKE, Inc. hasn’t disclosed an official collection prepped for Valentine’s Day 2022, several of its sneakers have recently appeared in colorways appropriate for the February 14th event. Case in point?: A newly-surfaced Nike Air Max 95 clad in black, grey and red.
Akin to other stealthy iterations of Sergio Lozano’s 1995 design, the upcoming sneakers engulf their leather, mesh and nubuck upper in a pitch-dark tone that allows supporting hues to revel in the spotlight. Lace loops interrupt the near-uniform look with their iron grey-reminiscent makeup, but their boldness pales when compared to the branding at the top of the tongue and lateral heel. “airmax” text on the top of the tongue maintains their standard design, but swoosh emblems on the lateral sidewall take on a three-dimensional “jewel” construction, a style that’s recently appeared on a number of Air Force 1 Mid pairs. Down below, visible Airbags and “NIKE AIR” messaging on the outsole also indulge in ruby-colored style, while accompanying foam at the midsole keep things muted in grey. Nevertheless, all aforementioned colors help create a fresh option for any Valentine’s Day plans.
Enjoy official images of the pair here below, and anticipate a Nike.com launch in the coming weeks.
