Nike Air Max 95

Why Choose the Nike Air Max 95

Since its release in the mid-1990s, the Nike Air Max 95 has been a huge hit around the world, receiving special attention in Japan especially, as sneakerheads admire the style's unique design and athletes praise its responsiveness.
First seen in 1995, the model was actually called the Air Max, or Air Max SC, before being recognised officially as the Air Max 95.
Designer Sergio Lozano based the design of the shoe on human anatomy, with the lacing system resembling ribs, an outsole inspired by the spine, and mesh on the upper to look like muscle fibres. This look was achieved by layering stitched and compression moulded synthetic suede on the upper.
The 95 was the first Air Max model to use air cushions in the forefoot, and it also featured a minimised Swoosh on the heel. A black outsole was introduced on the model in a first-of-its-kind, intended to help hide dirt.
