The Nike Air Max 95 Doernbecher Children’s Hospital has recently been revealed with this year’s Nike Doernbecher Freestyle 4 set to take place very soon. Nike has created an eye catching Air Max 95 much like the Air Jordan 2 that is also included for this event. The 95 features a blue upper with a red stripe pattern above the midsole inspired by the American flag. Other symbols can be seen in the form of a star along the top lace hole and an embroidered tongue. Perhaps the defining characteristic of the sneaker is the use of emotionally captivating words etched into the side depicting the emotions and feelings of the child designers. These will be released Saturday in Portland.
