Nike Air Max 95 OG Big Bubble "Lake Blue" IH7855-100

The Nike Air Max 95 OG Big Bubble Lake Blue is back, and this time it feels closer to the original than ever. First seen in 1995, this colourway—often called “Slate”—holds a strong place in Air Max history. And with only a handful of retro releases over the years, demand has never really dipped.

The upper brings back that signature gradient. Layers of Lake Blue, French Blue, and Obsidian flow from light to dark, creating the look that made the 95 stand out from day one. It’s smooth, familiar, and still hits the same decades later.

Then come the details. Emerald Green accents pop through the lace loops and Air units, adding contrast that breaks up the cool-toned base. This 2026 version tweaks a few elements—like a white inner tongue and updated spine branding—but keeps the overall feel close to the OG pair.

Underfoot, the big change is exactly what fans wanted. The return of the “Big Bubble” Air unit brings back that original shape and cushioning setup. It’s a small shift visually, but it matters. It gives the shoe a more authentic stance and a softer, more cushioned ride.
