While it will no longer be celebrating a major anniversary in 2026, the Nike Air Max 95 remains a top priority for Nike’s retro Air Max division. The next twelve months will bring a slate of notable releases, including “Comet” and “Greedy” retros as well as projects by Japanese retail powerhouse atmos – arguably the gold standard when it comes to Air Max 95 collaborations.

Under the hood, clean GR releases will once again be the engine that keeps the model in headlines throughout the year. Here we have an eye-catching, high-contrast men’s style featuring Saffron Quartz accents earmarked for Spring 2026. There’s no substitute for the grey gradient formula a la the “Neon” Air Max 95 (which is returning for an encore in 2026, by the way), but even the staunchest 110 purists have to admit that Nike’s newer styles have been consistently compelling. White suede clashes with black on the midsole and upper elements, while the yellow Saffron Quartz color accents the second-lowest overlay, lace loops, tongue logo, and the big-bubble Air unit underfoot.

The Nike Air Max 95 “Saffron Quartz” is scheduled to release Spring 2026, meaning sometime between January and March. Retail is set at $190 USD. See official images below and head to our Sneaker Release Dates page to browse more upcoming launches.
