While convenience stores may not hold heavy cultural weight in America, they’re seen as cultural institutions and neighborhood staples in Japan. Chains like 7-Eleven, Lawson, and FamilyMart are places to get quality food, pay bills, or even purchase concert tickets. They even have cult-like followings with fans collecting limited-edition merch and collaborations with outside partners. If you’re fond of 7-Eleven or Lawson, you’ll be happy to hear that Nike will honor the two iconic stores with Air Max 95 Big Bubble colorways.
Technically, the 7-Eleven and Lawson-inspired Nike Air Max 95 Big Bubbles are not collaborations with the storefronts, but the color palettes will pay homage to both institutions. We don’t have any imagery of the pairs just yet, but we know the 7-Eleven pair features sail, metallic silver, total orange, sport green, gym red, and light British tan in its color scheme. The chain’s instantly recognizable logo features green, red, and orange hues, and the speculative mock-up gives an example of how Nike will colorblock the shoe.
As for the Lawson-inspired Air Max 95, the pair comes with a color scheme of white, metallic silver, blue sapphire, light smoke grey, and action red. Just like its 7-Eleven counterpart, this pair uses Lawson’s white, blue, and red colors on the model. Given the Air Max 95’s multi-paneled upper and the typical gradient patterns present on the sneaker, the speculative mock-up pictured provides an idea of what to expect. Down below, both pairs will come with the “big bubble” tooling, which uses a larger Air unit in the heel that's closer to how original pairs in the ‘90s looked.
The 7-Eleven and Lawson-inspired Nike Air Max 95 Big Bubble Pack will be released Summer 2026 through Nike and select retailers online and in-store. Available in men’s sizing, the retail price is set at $210, an increase from the typical $190 for inline 95s. With the price increase, expect premium materials and special packaging.
