As the naming scheme suggests, the Nike Air Zoom Flight 95 launched back in 1995 and helped popularize the Zoom Air technology that The Swoosh was introducing at the time. Years later, and its unique design has influenced the likes of Drake’s upcoming Nocta sneaker and even was host to a collaboration with Supreme earlier in 2022. With a handful of inline releases on the way, the latest Nike Air Zoom Flight 95 to be revealed comes in "Black Valerian Blue Ale Brown."
A combination of nubuck and tumbled leather takes over the majority of the black upper, accented by hits of ale brown and valerian blue throughout. On the toe, the embroidered Nike Swoosh partially continues the black theme by taking on the darker shade, though the edges come in a stark white. Around the edges of the midfoot panel, the aforementioned ale brown makes an appearance, wrapping around the entire sneaker to meet its other half. Valerian Blue shades make their mark on the two-tone lace set and the piping of the collar’s Nike Swoosh. Underfoot, the bug-eyed Zoom Air cushioned midsole comes in white with black carbon fiber details. Rounding off the design is the black rubber outsole with a splash of blue near the heel.
The Nike Air Zoom Flight 95 Black Valerian Blue Ale Brown is set to release this Holiday 2022 through Nike and select retailers online and in-store. Coming in men’s sizing, the retail price is set at $165. For more updates regarding the latest in sneakers, streetwear, and more, keep it locked to our Twitter and the Sole Retriever mobile app.
