If you’re looking to cop your next pair of Nike Air Max 95 but don’t quite know how they fit or what the sizing is like, don’t worry because we’ve got you covered. We’re going to let you know just how the Nike Air Max 95 fit, what they’re like as an everyday sneaker, what the silhouette is like and we’ll even let you know what our favourite colourways are! The general consensus is that the Nike Air Max 95 sizing is true to size, but if you have wide feet or want a little more stability, going half a size up in the Nike Air Max 95 is wise! Of course, the sole on these is fitted with Nike’s famous Air unit so these trainers literally just cover every single base. The OG sneaker icon Tinker Hatfield designed the original Nike Air Max 90 then handed the torch over to Sergio Lozano for the AM95, and it’s been a staple in the collections of A-listers and sneakerheads alike ever since.

Nike Air Max 95 - What Our Product Specialists Think

I would always go true to size for the Nike AM95.
Christian, Head of Content
How does the Nike Air Max 95 fit?
Just like most others in the Air Max range, I would always go true to size for the Nike Air Max 95.
How does the Nike Air Max 95 fit compared to the Nike AM90?
My size for most Nikes is a UK9 which is what I would choose for both the Air Max 95 and Air Max 90. To be fair though, I've not copped an Air Max 90 for years!
How do you style yours?
I would never style my AM95s with a pair of jeans; the profile is too sporty, unless you're going for a hipster vibe, I just don't think it works. Instead, I'll wear them with shorts during the summer months and for the colder seasons, I'll pair with thick, fleece joggers.
How do you keep yours clean?
Nike Air Max 95s are one of the few trainers that I don't fuss over. I see these as everyday beaters so tend not to clean them unless they're getting massively caked in dirt.
Are they comfortable?
I wouldn't say it's Boost-level comfort or even a match for Nike's newer Air Max models but they do the job and I find that they're really durable too.
What's your favourite colourway?
The triple blacks are my everyday beater but I also really liked the ACG Mowabb-inspired colourway.

My first reaction would be to match the Air Max 95 with cargos or joggers.
Jack, Content Writer
What size Air Max 95 should I get?
Definitely go true to size with Air Max 95s. If you've had any pairs of Air Max before, go for the same size as the AM95 fits very similar to the whole Air Max range. We’ve had many pairs over the years and always stick with our standard Nike size.
How does the Nike Air Max 95 fit compared to the Nike Air Max 90?
Very similar, I’ve owned plenty of pairs of both and the only comparison I would make is that the AM95 is perhaps a little more narrow.
How do you style yours?
The AM95 is pretty chunky so my first reaction would be to match it with cargos or joggers, but it also works surprisingly well with shorts!
How do you keep yours clean?
If they’re looking a little beat I’ll use a soap and hot-water solution along with a hard-bristled brush and scrub the dirt away lightly.
Are they comfortable?
Very! Try a pair if you don’t believe me!
What's your favourite colourway?
For me it would have to be the recent “110” edition. They’re numbered out of 1995 pairs and are based around the old £10 note, it’s an awesome concept.

Compared to the Nike Air Max 90, the AM95 is a tiny bit narrower.
Adam, Head of Breaking News
How does the Nike Air Max 95 fit?
For me the Nike Air Max 95 fits half size up because i have wider feet. I would usually go TTS for Nike sneakers but because of the narrower midfoot, I would definitely recommend going up half a size. If you prefer a snug fit though, go true to size.
How does the Nike Air Max 95 fit compared to the Nike AM90?
Compared to the Nike Air Max 90, the AM95 is a tiny bit narrower.
How do you style yours?
Sergio Lozano designed these to be kind of chunky back in the '90s, so I prefer to rock these with a pair of utility cargo pants. With that said, depending on the colour you would find me wearing these with a pair of skinny jeans every once in a while.
How do you keep yours clean?
Every once in a while I give my pair a good brush, though I don't spend too much time on this as I like the "worn" look.
Are they comfortable?
The extra-chunky Air midsole is insanely comfortable and definitely one of the more comfortable Air Max sneakers out there.
What's your favourite colourway?
I love the rowdy colourways. From the atmos collab to the original Greedy, the crazy palettes are everything. However, I am guilty of also liking Supreme's controversial collaboration from 2019.

Sometimes I even wear my Nike Air Max 95 with cute dresses!
Paige, Writer
How does the Nike Air Max 95 fit?
If you like a snug fit, going true to size on the Air Max 95 is fine, but if you like tube socks or a bit more room, I'd go half a size up!
How does the Nike Air Max 95 fit compared to the Nike AM90?
I go half a size up for the Air Max 90 and the Air Max 95. Again, if you're happy with a close fit, TTS is absolutely fine and they'll fit you, I just prefer a little more room.
How do you style yours?
I usually wear my Nike Air Max 95 with joggers but I sometimes even wear them with a cute dress! It gives me that 'Lily Allen in 2001' effect.
How do you keep yours clean?
They're so easy to clean that I'll use a wipe or a brush and warm water.
Are they comfortable?
They definitely take a bit of breaking in! But overall they're comfortable enough to wear all day.
What's your favourite colourway?
Triple white! Always! So easy to wear.
Nike Air Max 95:What You Need To Know
Released way back in 1995, the Nike Air Max 95 marked a huge shift in the performance running sneaker market when it debuted. The iconic rippled design and exposed Air Max unit was way ahead of its time and it’s all thanks to Sergio Lozano – who Nike brought on board to spearhead the project. The entire sneaker is inspired by the erosion of earth, the anatomy of the human body and the layered effect of human muscles.
Interestingly, the initial Nike Air Max 95 design didn’t feature a Nike Swoosh at all, but as more iterations were developed, the designers added a miniature Swoosh to the heel so as not to distract from the unique layered effect of the upper.
Over the years, the Nike Air Max 95 has seen some interesting collabs, like Atmos, Supreme and Piet Parra – each with mixed reactions. Personally, we don’t think you can beat the original grey and volt Air Max 95, but we’re SO ready to see more collaborators try!
