Of course, it wouldn’t be a Linen colorway without a bit of pale pink, which finds its way to the tongue label, lace loops, and Air Max bubbles in the midsole

Iconic silhouette, meet iconic colorway. After more Air Max 95 colorways than we can count this year, Nike is keeping the 110 energy up in the new year. Doing a bit of mixing and matching across models, the latest women’s exclusive Air Max colorway slated for next spring takes its palette and blocking from the beloved Air Force 1 Linen and transfers it to the chunky waves of the 95.
The Nike Air Max 95 Linen takes the tan linen color that covers the Air Force 1 upper and adds it to the toe and bottom of the side panel in nubuck and on the mesh tongue. The rest of the side panels revert to the Air Max 95’s classic stacked gradient style, progressing from tan at the bottom to light gray at the lace panel. Of course, it wouldn’t be a Linen colorway without a bit of pale pink, which finds its way to the tongue label, lace loops, and Air Max bubbles in the midsole.
Nike Air Max 95 Linen
Originally launched in 2001 as a Japanese exclusive, the Air Force 1 Linen has been a grail for two and a half decades. The first retro release was a Kith exclusive drop in 2016, but the shoe has gotten more love since, with a wide release retro in 2024 and a canvas version earlier this year. The shoe doesn’t quite give us the same eyebrow-raising vibes in Air Max 95 form, but it's a clean colorway no matter the silhouette.
The Nike Air Max 95 Linen will be released Spring 2026 through Nike and select retailers in-store and online. Available in women’s sizing, the retail price is set at $190. For all the latest Nike Air Max 95 news, download the Sole Retriever mobile app.
