Nike has made the Air Max 95 one of its focal points for 2025 as the iconic Air Max silhouette is celebrating its 30th birthday. With this, we’ve seen The Swoosh prep an array of collaborations, OG retros, and new takes on the silhouette with the original “big bubble” build finally back. Next up for the sneaker is an OG-adjacent Black Bright Crimson makeover.
Not too far from the original gradient colors, like the Neon colorway, this pair opts for a darker aesthetic with black, grey, and anthracite hues on the human anatomy-inspired layered panels on the midfoot. Moving up from here, we see grey netting partially covering the nylon lace loops rendered in black to match the tongue and lace set.

Pops of bright crimson make their mark on the Air Max logo on the tongue and the mini Swoosh on the collar. Final details include the black foam midsole featuring hits of bright crimson on the Air units in the forefoot and heel, the latter coming in “big bubble” form, and a black rubber outsole with bright crimson accents.
The Nike Air Max 95 OG Black Bright Crimson will release in Fall 2025 through Nike and select retailers online and in-store. Available in men’s and GS sizing, the retail price is $180 and $145.
