Nike has been busy with birthdays this year. Not only is it the 40th anniversary of the Dunk and Jordan 1, but it’s also the Air Max 95’s 30th birthday and The Swoosh has been showing out all year for the iconic silhouette. In addition to retros of classic OG colorways, a first-ever SB construction, and heavily anticipated collabs like the upcoming Yu-Gi-Oh! Pack, Nike is going all out for this year’s inline releases, too.
The Air Max 95 Court Purple Camo is the latest release on the horizon, featuring a black leather toe, black mesh upper, and black rubber sole with waves of purple, blue, and black camo on the side panels. The wild berry Pop-Tarts colorway is reminiscent of the bright color camo pants trend that hit the streets hard in the late 20-teens, but with a black base, the dark purple camo is subtle enough to work.
We’ve seen Nike go hard all year with camo, so the combination of camo on the 95 is hardly a surprise. From patent camo forces, red and gold leaf camo, desert camo Book 1s, and Realtree on a few different models, Nike is putting camo on par with animal prints and faux fur when it comes to textile trends.
The Nike Air Max 95 Court Purple Camo will be released September 12, 2025, through select Nike retailers in-store and online. Available in men’s sizing, the retail price is set at $200.
