With a silhouette like no other, the Nike Air Max 95 has dominated the sneaker market since its release in 1995. Designed around groundbreaking innovations in running technology, they were the first Air Max sneakers to feature visible air pockets in the forefootand in fact, in the beginning, there were criticisms and controversies over such a radical design.
According to designer Sergio Lazono, the athletic shoe was inspired by our own human anatomy, with the Nike Air Max 95 laces representing ribs, a spine-inspired outsole, and the flexible mesh and suede upper inspired by muscle fibers. Whatever its history, the Nike Air Max 95’s individuality has made it a cult hit with runners and sneakerheads alike, and 25 years later it’s still a highly sought-after shoe.
Originally released in the iconic ‘Neon’, featuring contrasting shades of gray with bright yellow accents, the Air Max 95 has since been seen sporting various modern colorways and collaborations. The Air Max 95 ‘Grape’ is particularly standout – its clean lines and minimalist tones make it a classic summer shoe and one of the best sneakers for women.
Another standout example, and recently released as part of the sneaker’s 25th anniversary, is the Nike Air Max 95 “Pink Foam.” This sneaker was a hit from the start, due to its bold design and innovative colorway, making it a go-to luxury sneaker for both men and women. Otherwise known as ‘Gunsmoke Pink’, the ultra-cool tones of this shoe complete with colorful ‘Air Units’ make it a classic in the making.
