They Said It Was a Phase: These Upcoming Air Max 95s Show That the Big Bubbles Are Here for Good

Initially, it seemed Sergio Lozano’s iconic Air Max 95 silhouette was bringing the much loved "big bubble" feature as a birthday celebration for the model’s 30th year. However, new products hitting the internet, such as these two upcoming colourways set for Spring 2026, confirm that this enduring silhouette has now permanently adopted the larger Air unit (at least for the foreseeable future).

The first glimpse of this forthcoming “Smoke Grey” edition arrived courtesy of @con_mcnaughton, who showcased a Grade School pair. An adult men’s version is also on the schedule, promising different construction, most likely incorporating plush suede. That children's version builds its upper using leather panels that sharply slice between grey and black, all of which sits on a solid black midsole.

A light grey mesh occupies the top area, complementing the laces and eyelets, which introduce an even paler tone. Look closely, and you discover the Air units themselves carry a delicate blue luminescence, offering a striking detail against the darker framework.

If the “Smoke Grey” leans into depth and drama, the other teased offering, the Air Max 95 Big Bubble 'Mineral Teal', brings the brightness. Also expected to land early next year, this variant offers a completely different proposition for spring wardrobes.

The top section utilises a much paler grey material, paired with a white mesh that is almost transparent, allowing the underlying eyestay structure to shine through. Accents of vivid teal burst forth on the side Swooshes and the eyelets.

This hue extends right into the signature bubble, providing an aquatic tint that immediately sets it apart from the “Smoke Grey’s” blueish glow. This ‘Mineral Teal’ execution possesses a refreshing finish, making it the perfect candidate to greet the warmer weather.

Rumour places both the Nike Air Max 95 “Smoke Grey” and the Air Max 95 OG Big Bubble Mineral Teal on the launch calendar for next March. For your absolute best shot at securing either of these for retail, make sure you hit that bell icon on and keep following The Sole Supplier.
