Unless you’ve been living under a rock for the past nine months, you’ll know that 2025 marks the Air Max 95’s 30th birthday. To celebrate the milestone, Nike hasn’t just dropped a wave of legendary collaborations, it’s also been cooking up some of the boldest color combos the silhouette has ever seen – like the upcoming Nike Air Max 95 Black Bright Ceramic.
From a distance, this pair might look like another classic AM95, but get up close and you’ll spot details that make it truly stand out. Built on a breathable mesh base, the sidewalls are wrapped in summit white netting, layered with light graphite, metallic silver, and anthracite suede overlays for that signature muscle fiber-inspired aesthetic. Blacked-out suede reinforces the toebox and mudguards for durability, while the stealthy tone continues across the midsole, which houses Big Bubble Air units for added comfort, bounce, and all-day cushioning.

Bright Ceramic accents energize the inner lining, adding a vibrant contrast, and because this is a 30th anniversary release, each pair comes with a special stainless steel “Air Max” keychain for collectors. It’s a subtle but premium touch that makes the sneaker feel even more exclusive.
The Nike Air Max 95 Black Bright Ceramic is scheduled to launch during Holiday 2025 via Nike and select retailers worldwide, both online and in-store, for $200. For your best chance at securing a pair, make sure you download the Sole Retriever mobile app.
