Nike Air Max 95 Trades Layers for Lattice in New Woven Update

Nike is leaning into tactile experimentation for Summer 2026, reworking the iconic Air Max 95 with a complex woven upper. This 'Grey/Multi' iteration ditches Sergio Lozano’s traditional anatomical suede layers in favor of an intricate checkerboard lattice. Using a mix of 'Pearl Grey' and 'Purple Dynasty' nylon strips, the design maintains the silhouette’s signature gradient while introducing a craft-focused texture that feels more artisanal than athletic. The shift in construction reflects a broader trend of Nike revisiting its 90s golden era through the lens of modern material science. By pairing the technical woven web with classic neon accents and a crisp white midsole, the brand manages to honor the 1995 original’s high-energy DNA without relying on a simple archival re-release. It’s a calculated risk on a silhouette that usually thrives on its rigid structure, now softened by a flexible, interlaced aesthetic. Expect the Nike Air Max 95 Woven to land in Summer 2026 for $190 USD via Nike and select global retailers.
