Of all the different variations of the Air Max 95 that have been released for the sneaker’s 30th anniversary celebration, Nike is still finding new ways to reinvigorate the decades-old silhouette. The latest look to adorn the retro running shoe is a fall-appropriate combination of camouflage and bright orange.
The upcoming Black/Metallic Silver/Golden Beige/Safety Orange colorway of the Nike Air Max 95 OG Big Bubble coats the shoe’s ribbed, anatomy-inspired upper in a woodland camouflage pattern. The rest of the sneaker is colored in a solid black with blaze orange-like accents filling in the Air units and details.
Also separating this style from other Air Max 95s is its liberal use of reflective 3M material, which fills in the lace loops for an extra-illuminated look. And instead of the model’s traditional synthetic suede, the entire upper on this pair is constructed in leather.

The Air Max 95 OG Big Bubble debuted in March with a reissue of the sneaker’s original Neon colorway. It has since been released in a number of other notable styles including Bright Mandarin, Pink Foam and Blue Spark. On the special projects front, the model has been released in coveted collaborations with iconic denim manufacturer Levi’s and the popular Japanese manga “Yu-Gi-Oh!.”
For the 30th anniversary release, Nike took great care to ensure the 2025 version of the Air Max 95 closely resembled the look and feel of the original shoe from 1995.
“This version gives people a peek behind the curtain, almost like a director’s cut of the original. It invites deeper appreciation from both the old heads who remember the first wave and the new generation just now discovering it. For me, it’s a reminder that timeless design can always be reimagined, as long as the intention is pure,” James Whitner, founder of The Whitaker Group, told Footwear News in May.
A specific release date for this new camouflage Air Max 95 OG Big Bubble has not been confirmed, but the pair is expected to be released before the end of the year. The style code is HQ1973-001.
