Nike Celebrates the Iconic Neon Colorway with Multiple Sneakers for Air Max Day

You’ve got to wonder if Sergio Lozano realized how impactful his Nike Air Max 95 would be when he was designing it. Over thirty years removed from the original release of the Air Max model, and its influence only grows stronger, especially its original Neon colorway. That greyscale gradient, accented by pops of neon green, has become the blueprint for a ton of classic Air Max 95 colorways, as well as other Nike and even Jordan Brand sneakers. We already know that the Nike Air Max 95 Big Bubble Neon is coming back in full-family sizing next week, but Nike isn’t stopping there.

To kick off Air Max Month, the made-up holiday that Nike started celebrating in March 2014, The Swoosh has prepped a range of Air Max sneakers in the same Neon colorway as the famed AM 95. Pictured here is atmos Japan’s photoshoot for the upcoming Neon Pack, which features the Air Max 95, Air Max 90, Air Max Plus, and Air Max TL 2.5, but other pairs are receiving the colorway, too. We recently saw pictures of Ishod Wair’s Nike SB signature sneaker in a Neon 95 colorway, while there is also a LEGO x Nike Air Max 95 Neon for the kids and a paisley-covered version of the 95 that is expected later in the month.

All of the pairs in this pack borrow heavily from the original colorway of the 95, with greyscale gradients used on the Air Max 90 and Air Max Plus. The TL 2.5 opts for a primarily white build, with its grey hits used on the bottom half of the mesh upper and on the TPU overlays. Nike didn’t stop at just producing sneakers, though, as there are a handful of matching apparel items to go along with the kicks.

Some of the apparel draws direct influence from the greyscale and neon look of the Air Max 95, including a woven jacket that’s almost 1:1 with the shoe, while some of the T-shirts pull the “Air Max” tongue tag from the shoe and slap it on the chest. Nike even got creative and produced a T-shirt with a lung graphic, the perfect tie-in for the sneaker, as the design is inspired by human anatomy. There’s also a football jersey with loud Air Max graphics that scream late ‘90s.

The Nike Air Max Neon Pack will be released on March 5, 2026 through Nike and select retailers online and in-store. Some of the apparel items are being touted as an atmos Japan exclusive, though they may be referring to Japan, as official Nike images of the apparel items are loaded.
