Matt Varga Updated August 13th, 2026: Shortly after her official teaser went live, the Aya Brown x Nike Air Max 95 has loaded onto Nike servers with official images. Additionally, an exclusive release of the shoe will be dropping at a New York City activation on Saturday, August 15th. A wide SNKRS launch follows on August 21st with a $180 retail price.

It doesn’t take a marketing degree to understand that collaborations, player exclusives, and other limited fare can often be aimed at drumming up excitement for efforts elsewhere. Just a day after revealing a “Beef and Broccoli” style friends and family pair, Aya Brown and Nike are quickly capitalizing on what was immediately received as a stunner. Indeed, an Aya Brown x Nike Air Max 95 will see a public release, but change its outfit in the process.
Revealed in a social clip leaning into Brown’s visual arts background, this second Air Max 95 carries a palette of “Atomic Green/University Red/Black.” That viridescent shade coats much of the upper, before a “Bred” platform plays out below with the fiery hues focused on the Air bubbles. Though studio shots will no doubt clarify all of the details included within this link-up, already the spread from this teaser confirms that 3M laces and the custom “A|Brown” tongue badge are included.
The Aya Brown x Nike Air Max 95 is expected to release in short order, already listed at select retailers for August 21st. It’s unclear whether that’s a tentative date, or we should, in fact, be expecting such a quick turnaround from teaser to drop.
