The Loudest Air Max 95 Drops Still To Come in 2025

The year has absolutely flown past for us, the dedicated followers of footwear, and we have already nominated several serious contenders for the coveted 'trainer of the year' title. But hold on, the contest isn't over yet, especially not for the legendary Air Max 95.

One of Nike's most recognisable silhouettes is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year, and it appears the team in Beaverton will conclude 2025 with a bang. Here at The Sole Supplier, we have pulled together a selection of the most anticipated Air Max 95 styles landing between now and the end of the year. Oh, and if you want to keep up with the latest drops, you simply must get The Sole Supplier app.

While aficionados argue whether this is actually the "Chilli Red" release, we know for certain this shoe drops to mark the AM95’s 30th year. A favourite since it first appeared, this "Chili Red" edition becomes an essential purchase for any serious Air Max collector.

Constructed using high grade suede and overlayed with aerated mesh, this AM95 showcases a light to dark grey blend across the undulating, muscle like panels. A dark grey toe cap matches the mostly greyscale upper, a detail that perfectly honours the original design. Vivid red tones bring life to the embroidered Swooshes and the signature logo patch, complementing the nylon loops around the lacing system, which takes inspiration from the human lungs. The black polyurethane midsole includes a Big Bubble unit in the heel for superb cushioning, while the forefoot Max Air unit delivers a springy, low profile ride. Robust waffle patterns on the rubber outsole secure grip on any surface, accented by PSI (Pounds per square inch) labels on the midfoot that reference the updated technology.

The women’s exclusive Nike Air Max 95 Big Bubble “Medium Olive” uses the classic 1995 palette as its foundation. Set to become a market best seller, this new AM95 serves as a fitting tribute to Sergio Lozano's revolutionary footwear design.

This version features the characteristic greyscale blend across the wavy upper sections, alluding to both the structure of human muscle and the natural process of erosion. An olive green shade covers the nylon eyelets and embroidered Swoosh on the side, matching the pill logo on the tongue and the Nike branding on the back and insole. The understated black polyurethane foam midsole surrounds the Big Bubble in the heel and the standard Max Air unit in the forefoot, providing responsive cushioning and impact defence. Meanwhile, the waffle rubber outsole and a TPU shank plate offer excellent grip and stability.

The Air Max 95 “Black Bright Ceramic” is a fine option if you admired the original "Bright Mandarin." This version offers a darker look that lets the 3M reflective panels on the sidewall, heel, and lace cover shine when exposed to light or a camera flash.

This AM95 shows off a largely black and grey suede build, moving away from the smooth graduated effect seen on the original styles. The off white mesh eyestays, laces, and inner lining stand out against the dark base, while the bright orange pigment provides a hit of colour. The classic brand logos, like the "airmax" pill, embroidered mini Swoosh, and Nike Air labels, retain their traditional appearance. A Big Bubble unit reinforces the heel for excellent shock absorption, while the thinner Max Air unit in the forefoot offers a balanced stride. Nike’s signature waffle rubber treads make up the outsole, guaranteeing traction wherever you walk. These 110s come with a metallic silver “airmax” hang tag, inspired by the tongue badge.

Pushing the possibilities of anatomical design, the Nike Air Max 95 Big Bubble "Black Game Royal" re envisions the classic shape with pronounced dimensions and powerful colour blocking. Deep black layers move across the upper like muscle fibres, as vivid Game Royal accents slice through the darkness with electric intensity on this premium men's shoe.

The groundbreaking Big Bubble technology enhances the original's core design, providing magnified cushioning that honours 90s athletic innovation while creating a completely fresh feeling underfoot. Built from high quality mixed materials that respect the original while elevating the execution, this Air Max 95 trainer doesn't just reference the past; it moves the legacy forward with every confident step, whether you are running or strolling through your day.

Nike’s Yardrunners initiative returns with another collection in 2025, this time revealing new Air Max 95 variations inspired by the brand’s partnered Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). Launched in 2020, the series celebrates various HBCUs through limited edition footwear, all created with the help of school alumni, students, and other community members. Part of the 6.0 capsule, the Nike Air Max 95 “Yardrunners Spelman” pays tribute to the Atlanta based all female HBCU that focuses on liberal arts.

Featuring the college’s official colours, this AM95 displays light blue, grey, white, and black on the wavy upper. The animal print on the suede panel and TPU shank plate references Spelman College’s jaguar mascot, elevating school pride. An embroidered Swoosh graces the side panel, while the “S” symbol and the year “1881” appear on the tongue. Other details that tell the story include the branding on the insole and the "Thy Name We Praise" hymn on the inner heel. The 3M reflective strips on the nylon eyelets help you get noticed when light hits them. The clean white PU midsole encloses the Big Bubble in the heel and the visible Max Air in the forefoot for maximum impact absorption and responsiveness. To complete the high end design and rich narrative, these 110s arrive in a special edition box.

Staying true to Sergio Lozano's original sketches, the Nike Air Max 95 appears in its Big Bubble form. This highly sought after release leads the annual event celebrating the brand’s groundbreaking cushioning technology, joining the debut of the DN8 and the arrival of other classics. This Nike Air Max 95 Big Bubble “Blue Granite” provides a perfect recreation of a treasured original colourway, offering lasting style and nostalgia.

This clean 110 includes the famous greyscale gradient detail across the wavy suede upper, referencing the natural process of soil erosion. The black PU foam midsole contains a 25 PSI Air unit in the heel for maximum bounce and comfort, faithfully replicating the original 1995 design. The forefoot bubble provides ample cushioning and responsiveness to keep your feet comfortable all day long. An embroidered blue Swoosh decorates the side heel, matching the pill shaped logo on the tongue and the trademark branding on the sockliners and back panel. Further exploring the anatomy inspired look, the mesh eyelets, speed lacing system, and nylon cables imitate the ribs, while the waffle sole represents the spine.
