All Nike Air Max 95 release dates & colorways
This 2017 Air Max 95 turns the retro runner fully black, running a monochrome upper broken only by a small white Swoosh outlined in red. Black covers the mesh panels, suede overlays and midsole cage alike, so the red and white on the Swoosh carry most of the shoe's contrast. The tongue drops the model's usual reflective panel for a leather pull tab printed in a repeating N pattern, and the reflective strip that normally sits on the tongue shifts down to the heel instead.
A Sail midsole trim balances out the black upper, keeping a touch of contrast underfoot in an otherwise tonal build. Nike released the pair on December 23, 2017, at a retail price of $160, positioning it as a straightforward, low key colorway rather than a themed or collaborator release. Its Gym Red and Sail accents give the all black upper just enough color to read as a distinct colorway within the wider Air Max 95 catalog.
