Nike is bringing back a classic from the ‘90s with the return of the Air Max 95 “Black Border.” Originally released in 1996, this eye-catching sneaker is set to hit shelves again in Fall 2025, just in time for the 30th anniversary of the Air Max 95.
Designed by Sergio Lozano, the Air Max 95 is famous for its unique look inspired by the human body — with the layered upper representing muscles and the midsole symbolizing the spine. The “Black Border” version stands out because it skips the usual gradient fade. Instead, it goes bold with a clean white upper and strong black overlays, creating a sharp contrast that gave it the nickname.
To make it even better, Hyper Jade details brighten things up. You’ll see this pop of color on the tongue, mini Swoosh logos, and inside the visible Air units in the heel and forefoot. It’s a fun, colorful touch that keeps the sneaker feeling fresh while honoring its roots.
One big upgrade in this 2025 release is Nike’s new Big Bubble heel unit, offering more comfort and a modern feel without losing the original vibe.
Whether you’re a longtime fan or new to the Air Max family, the “Black Border” is a stylish and nostalgic pick for any sneaker rotation.
