Nike has the Air Max DN8 and the Big Head Origins slated as their big Air Max Day drops, but many are looking beyond March for their must-have bubbled pick-ups of 2025. Read on to learn more about the upcoming Air Max 95 “Neon”.

The original colorway of the 1995 model created by Sergio Lozano may be the most iconic Air Max sneaker of all-time. More recognizable than any of its siblings, the 95s are easily in a metaphorical Mount Rushmore of Nike footwear history for its timeless design.

With Nike’s adherence to dropping shoes on milestone anniversary years, we foresaw the Air Max 95 “Neon” dropping in 2025 years ago. This year’s version brings a very welcome twist as it will ditch the “modern” Air units and revert back to the older construction that features the horizontal seam through the heel Air unit. This crucial detail was ditched way back in 2005/2006 as Nike re-engineered the cushion to be less prone to deflation; an unexpected byproduct was the disapproval by the public.

The Swoosh has taken serious efforts in restoring original shapes and constructions of its earliest Air Max models, and the 2025 version of the 95 is simply its best foot forward yet. It still falls short of the original via the smaller bag volume and the lack of psi markings, but that won’t hold anyone back from copping multiple pairs.

The Neon 95 did drop at select stores in Japan over the weekend, but Nike has a firm release scheduled for the month of April planned out. Select stores in NYC, LA, Chicago, and along the I-95 route will release the shoes on April 4th, with wider SNKRS and retailer drop penciled in for April 17th. MSRP is set at $185.
