The Nike Air Max 95 is now set to release in a University of Michigan-inspired colorway. The latest makeover of the timeless silhouette takes on the school’s iconic “White/Navy/University Gold” scheme.

This Air Max 95 maintains the signature mesh, leather, and suede construction throughout the upper. Navy accents are prominent amongst the eyelets, the tongue, and the outline of the upper. The emblematic Nike and Air Max branding are ever-present on the cushioned tongue and heel of the shoe. The Air Max branding can also be seen on the navy insoles of the sneaker in gold and white. Additional gold, white, and gray tones are featured throughout the shoe’s layered stripes along the side of the upper, on theme with the Michigan team colors. Elevating the shoe is a white midsole with pockets of gold Air Max cushioning in prominent view paired with a black and gold rubber outsole.

This Nike Air Max 95 is priced at $170 USD and should be available in the coming weeks.

In case you missed it, Nike Golf reimagines the OG Air Max 90 “Infrared” for the links.
