Even a full year after the “Neon” reignited Sergio Lozano’s design, the Nike Air Max 95 is as fervent as ever. The Palace Air Max 95 is poised to bring collaborative energy back into the mix, but mainline Swoosh designers are hard at work forging ahead with novel editions.

First revealed with in-hand shots at the tail end of 2025, the Nike Air Max 95 “Hot Curry” is among the hottest (no pun intended) anticipated of that general release cadence. In the broadest strokes, the grey gradient skeleton that’s propelled OG and OG-adjacent looks from the “Pink Foam” to the “Mandarin” to massive heights stays intact, though a bit darkened in this iteration. THe titular tone comes into play down the eyelets, supported by but broken from with neon pink cushioning underfoot.
