By 1995 Nike’s Air Max family was already a well-established line in the footwear world, with athletes and sneakerheads alike favouring the shoes due to their impressive specifications and clean looks. However, things were about to step up a notch with the introduction of the Air Max 95. Designed by Sergio Lozano, the kicks were the first to feature multiple Air units within the midsole and are said to be inspired by trail running sneakers and the human anatomy. First launched in the OG “Neon Green” colourway, the AM95 would go on to become a fan favourite and one of the most iconic sneakers of all time.
Now a mainstay in the sneaker world, the Nike Air Max 95 has launched in hundreds of colourways over the years and has even acted as the blank canvas for high-heat collaborations. Here at Crepslocker we often get asked “how does the Air Max 95 fit?” by our customers, so we’ve decided to settle the debate for good. Join us as we share exactly how the sneakers fit, as well as some useful styling advice and other information.
How Does the Air Max 95 Fit?
With its rather chunky appearance compared to some Air Max models, you might be mistaken in thinking that the AM95 is uncomfortable. In fact, the opposite is true, with the Air Max 95 being one of the most comfortable sneakers in the world! To make the most of this comfort, you’ll want to make sure you’re wearing the correct size. The good news is that the Air Max 95 generally fits true to size, meaning you can take your regular size without having to worry about inconsistency! Of course, we’d always recommend trying on sneakers in store if possible, however if this isn’t possible you’ll be safe in following our advice above.
How Does the Air Max 95 Fit Compared to Other Sneakers?
If you’re a regular Nike consumer you’ll already know that most (not all) Nike sneakers fit very similar. You can directly compare the AM95 to any other Air Max variants, as these all fit the same. You can also count on the AM95 fitting very similar to the Air Jordan 1 or the Air Jordan 4, both popular options in their own right. Compared to the Air Force 1, the Air Max 95 fits a little smaller, so go half a size up from your AF1 size here. If you’re comparing the AM95 to Yeezys, be sure to take a half size smaller than your Yeezy size, as Yeezys are known for fitting small.
How to Style the Nike Air Max 95?
The Nike Air Max 95 is truly a timeless sneaker, making it easy to work into any outfit. When it comes to bottoms you really can pair the AM95 with many different options, it can work with joggers, cargo pants, shorts and even jeans when styled right. We’d advise working the rest of the outfit out based on what bottoms you go for and then accessorising as necessary. Keep colour combinations in mind and if you’re dressing for the colder months of the year, layering always works a treat! A personal favourite look here at Crepslocker is rocking our AM95s with nylon track pants for a street-ready look.
What Are the Best Air Max 95 Colourways?
There have been hundreds of Air Max 95s released over the years, making it hard to pick favourites. However, the Air Max 95 OG “Neon” holds a special place in our heart. Other colourways that follow this colour-blocking pattern such as the “Tour Yellows” and the “Hyper Turquoise” are also fan-favourites. In recent years, many collaborations have opted for the AM95 as well, such as the Corteiz x Nike Air Max 95 from 2023. There’s also been renditions from the likes of Parra, Carhartt and Stash, all of which are highly desirable too.
