Part of the model’s original 1995 lineup, the Air Max 95 “Slate” stands out with a clean blue suede gradient and an Emerald Green Air unit. Previous retros landed in 2005 and 2015, each with slight deviations from the OG. We’ve also seen a few adjacent looks over the years, including the Air Max 95 “White/New Green” (609048-102) and an Air Max 95 NS.

This 2026 version differs in a couple key areas: the inner tongue comes in white instead of navy, and the spine branding appears in black rather than Emerald Green (at least on the GS pair). Still, the return of the “big bubble” Air unit helps bring things back in line with the original 1995 release.

The Nike Air Max 95 “Slate” is scheduled to release May 7th via Nike and select retailers in adult and GS sizing, priced at $190/$147. Scroll back up to our Where to Buy section for purchase links and visit our Sneaker Release Dates page to browse more upcoming pairs.
